* Mitel handed over the e-smith forums and documentation to the community
* At that time Jeff Coleman registered the domain name contribs.org and
received all assests from Mitel on behalf of the community
* I myself maintained contribs.org for several years, working with Jeff
* Jeff eventually tried to sell contribs.org to Lycoris. I prevented this
* Ruffdogs jumped in to provide an open source spot and hosting/admin tasks
* Quiet for a loooong time, all small eforts to professionlize failed.
* Ruffdogs left and Shad took over.
