The Mandrake employees deserve to be credited as much as the volunteers do. If we're a community building a distro, then why would it be wrong to give credit to members of the community who happen to work for Mandrake? Do they not contribute ? I'd like to see more of the Mandrake employees have their contributions listed.
Maybe a good compromise would be to list them separate? With an introduction over the community contributors that don't work for Mandrake? V.
