18 <h2>Main Developers</h2>
19 <blockquote>
20 <p>A special thanks from all of us goes to those who have contributed substantial and ongoing amounts of time
21 to writing Moodle code and helping it grow. These are people who &quot;get&quot; what developing Moodle is all about and without whom Moodle would be a far lesser thing:</p>
22 <blockquote>
23 <p>
24 <strong> Eloy Lafuente (stronk7), Ray Kingdon, Williams Castillo, Petri Asikainen, Henrik Kaipe, Zbigniew Fiedorowicz, Gustav Delius, Thomas Robb, Janne Mikkonen, Jon Papaioannou (pj), Scott Elliott, Shane Elliott, Roberto Pinna (Bobo), Mike Churchward, Petr &#352;koda (skodak), Penny Leach, Martin Langhoff</strong></p>
25 </blockquote>
26 <p>&nbsp;</p>
27 </blockquote>
28 <h2>Other Contributors</h2>
29 <blockquote>
30 <p>Many other people have contributed (and are still contributing) with constructive
31 discussions, support, testing and various chunks of code and documentation. This list is long and always
32 changing, but some names include (in the order they were added):
33 </p>
34 <blockquote>
35 <p>
36 <strong>Peter C. Taylor, Art Lader, Matt Hope, Tom Murdock, Sébastien Namèche, James Miller, Dustin
37 Rue, Holger Schadeck, Giovanni Tummarello, John Windmueller, Sean Keogh, Mitsuhiro
38 Yoshida, Greg Barnett, Mark Kimes, Mary Hunter, Russell Jungwirth, Przemyslaw Stencel,
39 John "Captain" Eyre, Paula Edmiston, Howard Miller, Claudio Tavares, P. Timothy Ervin,
40 Bob Calder, Ursula Raab, David Delgado, Mad Alex, Ga&euml;tan Frenoy, Bernard Boucher,
41 Bryan Williams, Rob Butner, Koen Roggemans, David Scotson, Torsten Anderson, Eamon Costello, Hannes Gassert, Andrew Walker, Urs Hunkler.</strong></p>
42 </blockquote>
43 <p>Sorry if we've forgotten to include your name here - the Moodle community is large and active so this list is difficult
44 to maintain! Please email Martin and make your suggestions! :-) </p>
45 <p>Thanks also to <strong>everyone</strong> of you who have
46 </p>
47 <ul>
48 <li>donated via the <a target="_top" href="http://moodle.org/donations">Donations
49 page</a>,
50 </li>
51 <li>contributed to the <a target="_top" href="http://moodle.org/bugs">bug tracker</a>,
52 and
53 </li>
54 <li>participated in the <a target="_top" href="http://moodle.org/community">Moodle
55 Community</a> </li>
56 </ul>
57 </blockquote>
58 <p>&nbsp;</p>
59 <h2>Translators</h2>
60 <blockquote>
61 <p>One of Moodle's strengths is the number of translations it has. Each translation takes many hours of work, as there are
62 over 1000 phrases to translate (plus hundreds of help files!). Many of the languages
63 have more than one contributor, sometimes working together and sometimes working serially.
64 </p>
65 <p>Maintaining a list of all these wonderful people is too difficult, so please look at the <a target="_top" href="http://moodle.org/download/lang/">Language
66 download page</a> for names and details.</p>
67 <p>The Translation Coordinator is Koen Roggemans (<a href="m&#97&#105&#108&#116&#111:tra%6es%6ca%74%69o%6e%40%6d%6f%6f%64%6c%65.org">&#116&#114a&#110&#115&#108&#97t&#105on&#64&#109o&#111&#100&#108e&#46o&#114&#103</a>).</p>

93 <h2>Moodle libraries</h2>
94 <blockquote>
95 <p>Some of Moodle's libraries were written by other people, and are being redistributed
96 as part of Moodle under their respective open source licenses that thankfully
97 allow us to do so. My thanks go out to the authors of all these excellent
98 products - without them Moodle would be missing important functionality. Copyright
99 information for each package is included below:</p>
