Abduussalam -
You probably have seen many responses to your message talking about who goes 
into the Acknowledgements section. However, I am not sure your original 
question was answered.

In short, it is the document editor that puts the acknowledgments section in. 
In most cases it will be obvious who gets listed there. That is the substance 
of the other messages on this thread.  In rare cases a work group chair may get 
involved.

As you are new, if you are a document editor, you can always ask your work 
group chair for guidance. Conversely, if you feel you should be in an 
acknowledgements section for your contributions, feel free to talk with the 
document editor (first) and work group chair (second)
