The left column gives +the contributor's name, while the right column gives the last known good email +address for this contributor. This list should be introduced with a wording +similar to this one: + + MaNGOS THANKS file + + MaNGOS has originally been written by Team Python and WoW Daemon Team. Many + people further contributed to MaNGOS by reporting problems, suggesting various + improvements or submitting actual code. + + Here is a list of these people. Help me keep it complete and exempt of errors. + + Special thanks should also go out to the WowwoW team. We have gained help from + them many times in the creation of this project. Keep up the good work guys. + + Thanks should also go out to the Ludmilla team, who are also providing the + community with a great server. We have not gained too much help from them, + but we have recieved some. + +The easiest policy with this file is to thank everyone who contributes to the +project, without judging the value of the contribution. + +Unlike `AUTHORS', the `THANKS' file is not maintained for legal reasons. It is +maintained to thank all the contributors that helped you out in your project. +The `AUTHORS' file can not be used for this purpose because certain +contributions, like bug reports or ideas and suggestions do not require legal +paper exchanges. + +You can also decide to send some kind of special greeting when you initially +add a name to your `THANKS' file. The mere presense of a name in `THANKS' is +then a flag to you that the initial greeting has been sent. + +TBD |
