<blockquote>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Main Developers</h2>
<blockquote>
<p>A special thanks from all of us goes to those who have contributed substantial and ongoing amounts of time
to writing Moodle code and helping it grow. These are people who &quot;get&quot; what developing Moodle is all about and without whom Moodle would be a far lesser thing:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
<strong> Eloy Lafuente (stronk7), Ray Kingdon, Williams Castillo, Petri Asikainen, Henrik Kaipe, Zbigniew Fiedorowicz, Gustav Delius, Thomas Robb, Janne Mikkonen, Jon Papaioannou,
Scott Elliott</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
</blockquote>
<h2>Other Contributors</h2>
<blockquote>
<p>Many other people have contributed (and are still contributing) with constructive
discussions, support, testing and various chunks of code and documentation. This list is long and always
changing, but some names include (in the order they were added):
</p>
<blockquote>
<p>
<strong>Peter C. Taylor, Art Lader, Matt Hope, Tom Murdock, Sébastien Namèche, James Miller, Dustin
Rue, Holger Schadeck, Giovanni Tummarello, John Windmueller, Sean Keogh, Mitsuhiro
Yoshida, Greg Barnett, Mark Kimes, Mary Hunter, Russell Jungwirth, Przemyslaw Stencel, Roberto
Pinna (Bobo), John "Captain" Eyre, Paula Edmiston, Howard Miller,
Claudio Tavares, P. Timothy Ervin, Bob Calder, Ursula
Raab, David Delgado, Mad Alex, Ga&euml;tan Frenoy, Bernard Boucher, Bryan Williams, Mike Churchward, Rob Butner, Koen Roggemans.</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Sorry if we've forgotten to include your name here - the Moodle community is large and active so this list is difficult
to maintain! Please email Martin and make your suggestions! :-) </p>
<p>Thanks also to <strong>everyone</strong> of you who have
</p>
<ul>
<li>donated via the <a target=_top href="http://moodle.org/donations">Donations
page</a>,
</li>
<li>contributed to the <a target=_top href="http://moodle.org/bugs">bug tracker</a>,
and
</li>
<li>participated in the <a target=_top href="http://moodle.org/community">Moodle
Community</a> </li>
</ul>

<h2>Translators</h2>
<blockquote>
<p>One of Moodle's strengths is the number of translations it has. Each translation takes many hours of work, as there are
over 1000 phrases to translate (plus hundreds of help files!). Many of the languages
have more than one contributor, sometimes working together and sometimes working serially.
</p>
<p>Maintaining a list of all these wonderful people is too difficult, so please look at the <a target=_top href="http://moodle.org/download/lang/">Language
download page</a> for names and details.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Moodle libraries</h2>
<blockquote>
<p>Some of Moodle's libraries were written by other people, and are being redistributed
as part of Moodle under their respective open source licenses that thankfully
allow us to do so. My thanks go out to the authors of all these excellent
products - without them Moodle would be missing important functionality. Copyright
