As far as acknowledgements go, if I were writing the paper, I'd think it important to recognize Doug Coleman and Stack Effects LLC as providing major funding for the Factor project for the years 2008-2009. Factor wouldn't be where it is today if it were not for Doug. This generous funding allowed Slava to work on Factor full-time for two years. Chris has been around since the beginning and he has certainly influenced the language over the years through his many innovative vocabularies (and in tons of other ways). But don't confuse acknowledgements with authorship. One should never imitate the thoughts of another author as one's own original work.
