I'm surprised that we haven't always acknowledged contributions, at the 
option of the contributor.  I suppose there are a number of questions 
that arise, and I wonder if the ASF has considered this question.  For 
example, the Xerces and Xalan development is heavy with IBM personnel, 
yet I see no acknowledgement of IBM's ongoing involvement.

- As with the contributor's list, if we start the list now, we don't
  acknowledge former contributions. And completing such a list is some
  tedious work. Just missing former contributors/supporters out is
  unfair IMO.
And if we start a list of companies/organizations supporting FOP we
would also need to acknowledge the employers of committers/developers if
they grant their employees time to work on FOP.
I'd like to hear other opinions.

Shouldn't we acknowledge this support on the web site?
