Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: I don't know how Doc ACKS is maintained, but I think the devguide is fine as it stands, whether or not Doc ACKS is preserved or not. People should put themselves into Misc/ACKS if they made a contribution, period.
If people need to be acknowledged separately for contributing to the documentation, I think only major contributions (such as writing the documentation for a yet-undocumented module) should be explicitly acknowledged. I think this all started from the documentation having initially Guido van Rossum given as its sole author, and then later Fred Drake. So Doc/ACKS.txt may have been an attempt to correct the impression that these two are the authors, but I think it went into the wrong direction (eventually leading to the creation of issues such as this one) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15439> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
