If anything, I think we should systematically do vastly *more* to clearly acknowledge and appreciate the code contributors to Sage. They are by far the most important people to the existence of Sage.

def foo(): """ Do foo. """ # Author: Jori Mäntysalo for a new function or # Author: Jori Mäntysalo // Added support for bar objects. for an important enhancement. -- Jori Mäntysalo
