Actually, I have not been able to figure out a maintenance free way of adding 
links to the master bzr branch revision histories. There always seems to be a 
series name involved. For example:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/ubuntu-docs/utopic/changes
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/serverguide/trusty/changes

See:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-doc/serverguide/trusty/revision/34
By Matt on 2012.02.05, which results in the Credits and License page (page 2) 
of the compiled PDF serverguide. 

I'm going to add the master bzr branch references to the html the same
way.

It would be easy to change the way we name the branches. Instead of
calling a branch for next cycle vivid we could call it trunk, which
it actually is anyway since it contains all the revisions. Then, after
the release of 15.04 we could copy it to a vivid branch and keep using
trunk during the W cycle etc.

2014-10-21 Thread Matthew East
Benjamin asked me to take a look at bug 1383576, which is marked a
duplicate of this one. I think that the licence does require attribution
of contributors (see paragraph 4(c) of the licence) but agree that
properly maintaining the file is difficult or impossible.

I don't think linking to the Launchpad group (whether or not it points
to former members) is necessarily the answer: that would not attribute
contributors who were never members of the team. Could it be better
perhaps to link to the revision history of the relevant branch(es) which
would contain reference to all authors?

Hi Matt and thanks very much for chiming in.

Our objective with some of these changes is to eliminate busy non-
productive work in an environment where the amount of work to do exceeds
the number of people doing it by an enormous amount (I know you are
plenty familiar with the scenario).

Since it would require no ongoing maintenance, we will have a look at
adding links to the master files revision history for the desktop help
guide and the serverguide. Myself, I am not in a hurry to make this
change, because I am busy with other things.

We will leave the actual file present, but remove all individual names
and add links for various launchpad teams names and a new link to the
GNOME documentation project. Thus satisfying Kevin's CC-BY worries.

As to post #7 from Ben above, referring to revision 97 of
help.ubuntu.com. It did not end up as an accurate, nor exhaustive list
of contributors, hence this bug report. That same revision also added
many names from xubuntu docs, which is not posted on help.ubuntu.com.

+1. I agree that it should be deleted due to maintenance difficulties.

We should, however, maintain a list of sources for any CC-BY material
that we're reusing (e.g., GNOME docs?).

2013-09-02 Thread Kevin Godby
While skimming through the existing list of contributors, I noticed
Contributors to the Ubuntu Documentation Wiki and Authors of the
Official Ubuntu Book.  That prompted me to think about what material we
may be using that didn't originate with us but may be licensed such that
we need to provide attribution.

Whether the attribution is provided on this contributors page or
elsewhere is a separate issue/bug, I suppose.

All in all, I'm for deleting the existing contributors page.
