-
-Chris Faylor (cgf@@cygnus.com) is behind many of the recent
-changes in Cygwin. Prior to joining Cygnus, he contributed significant
-fixes to the process control and environ code, reworked the strace
-mechanism, and rewrote the signal-related code from scratch as a Net
-contributor. In addition to continuing to make technical contributions,
-Chris is also currently the group's manager.
-
-Geoffrey Noer (noer@@cygnus.com) took over the Cygwin project from its'
-initial author Steve Chamberlain in mid-1996. As maintainer, he
-produced Net releases beta 16 through 20; made the development
-snapshots; worked with Net contributors to fix bugs; made many various
-code improvements himself; wrote a paper on Cygwin for the
-1998 Usenix NT Symposium; authored the project WWW pages, FAQ, README;
-etc.

+GDB/Cygwin engineer.
+
+DJ Delorie has done important work in profiling Cygwin,
worked on the Dejagnu automated testing framework, merged the dlltool
functionality into ld, wrote a good deal of the Cygwin Users' Guide,
authored the cygcheck utility, and made automated snapshots available

+Egor Duda has contributed many useful fixes. He is responsible for
+Cygwin's ability to start a debugger on detection of a fatal error
+as well as produce core dumps.

+Robert Collins has contributed many improvements to thread handling
+as well as generic fixes to cygwin itself.

+
+Steve Chamberlain designed and implemented
Cygwin in 1995-1996 while working for Cygnus. He worked with the Net
to improve the technology, ported/integrated many of the user tools
for the first time to Cygwin, and produced all of the releases up to
-beta 14.
-
-Marco Fuykschot (marco@@ddi.nl) and Peter Boncz (boncz@@ddi.nl) of
-Data Distilleries contributed nearly all of the changes required to
-make Cygwin thread-safe. They also provided the pthreads interface.
-
-Sergey Okhapkin (sos@@prospect.com.ru) has been an invaluable Net
-contributor. He implemented the tty/pty support, has played a
-significant role in revamping signal and exception handling, and has
-made countless contributions throughout the library. He also provided
-binaries of the development snapshots to the Net after the beta 19
-release.
-
-Mumit Khan (khan@@xraylith.wisc.edu) has been most helpful on the EGCS
-end of things, providing quite a large number of stabilizing patches to
-the compiler tools for the B20 release.
-
-Corinna Vinschen <corinna@@vinschen.de> has contributed several
-useful fixes to the path handling code, console support, improved security
-handling, and raw device support.
-
-Philippe Giacinti (giac@@dalim.de) contributed the implementation of
-dlopen, dlclose, dlsym, dlfork, and dlerror in Cygwin.
-
-Many other people at Cygnus have made important contributions to Cygwin.
-Tobin Brockett wrote the InstallShield-based installer for the beta 19
-and 20 releases. Ian Lance Taylor did a much-needed rework of the path
-handling code for beta 18, and has made many assorted fixes throughout
-the code. Jeremy Allison made significant contributions in the area of
-file handling and process control, and rewrote select from scratch.
-Doug Evans rewrote the path-handling code in beta 16, among other
-things. Kim Knuttila and Michael Meissner put in many long hours
-working on the now-defunct PowerPC port. Jason Molenda and Mark Eichin
-have also made important contributions.
