I've had a request about how many people have contributed to the OOo
codebase - I'm sure someone here has done some work on this (Alexandro?
Charles? ..?)


Answering this q. is always difficult, as its phrasing implies individuals, not groups or companies, and in fact, with OOo in particular, groups and companies contribute most.

One can use several sources: http://www.openoffice.org/copyright/copyrightapproved.html , and it's probably close to 900 or 1,000.

We can also use the Domain Developer page, tho I'm no sure how up-to- date it is:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/DomainDeveloper That gives an account of those who have quite powerful privileges.

And we can use the *very* out of date credits page,
http://www.openoffice.org/welcome/credits.html

The About box on OOo should have this up-to-date info, but my Mac OS X Aqua version only cites the welcome page, which is of course out of date.






Thanks - John
