I'm don't know Latin, and am not a lawyer, but I believe that ["et 
al."](https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/et-al) is legalese 
for this exact use. Also, it's technically more precise to leave some of the 
names and abbreviate it with "et al." rather than deleting the original details 
and replacing with some ambiguous group like "Geany developers" or 
"contributors". But again, I don't really care.
