To my best knowledge, *all* of the substantial contributors to all the plexus repositories I have seen are available to us, most of them are PMC's or emeritus, and still "around" in some fashion or another.
Could we make all of them submit some kind of written submission to the ASF ? I would actually think that would cover a decent 95% of the significant contributions, and in quite a few (maybe even all...) of the repos it would cover 100% ? (I am assuming they'll be willing to make such a submission...)
