As I said, no offence was meant to anyone else who has contributed, or is contributing code to the project. I was mostly confining myself to think of those with commit access, and / or major code projects cooking which I know of. (That is why I don't consider myself an active gEDA developer at the moment.. all of my spare effort is going into PCB, and any patches I had outstanding for gEDA are pretty stagnant.)
