Second point (hmm, so all the above is just one point!) , how about their being hyperlinks to Contributors/Committers sites within the changes document. Seeing a load of [TS] [RDG] [DC] etc all over the place is hardly informing to the outsider.

I am of the opinon that who applies what change is irrelevant. However, I have no objection to such links if others want them.

It is reasonably clear from the bottom of
the changes page who is who. Perhaps we need
a link to this section from the top of the page.

It seems I will develope again with Struts for a customer project and
while browsing their site I found:
http://struts.apache.org/volunteers.html

I really like it, maybe something for us as well.

I trust you mean the "mini-bio" for each committer. Personally, I don't use the Forrest sites for self promotion, but I have no problem with others doing it (my reasoning is a business one, not an ethical one). If I did I'd probably just want a link, maybe, if the bio was pulled from the committers own site, that would ease the need to keep multiple copies of a bio in synch. Perhaps a small extension to the Resume plugin.

Anyway, if people want to add bios to [1] I am +/-0 for that.
