Stig Rohde Døssing updated STORM-2899:
--------------------------------------
    Description: 
We've talked a few times on the mailing list about removing or replacing the 
contributors lists, because they are not really being maintained because 
keeping them up to date is a manual process.

The last time this was discussed 
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/storm-dev/201712.mbox/browser, there 
seemed to be some consensus for using Flink's scripted solution to generate the 
contributors list. It was also suggested that having the contributors list at 
all was maybe unnecessary.

In order to avoid having this discussion again in a few months, I'll submit a 
PR that removes the contributors list from the README and site, because it's 
the simplest solution in terms of release process (no extra step to generate 
the contributors list).

If there are strong feelings for using Spark's solution to generate a 
contributors list instead, people will hopefully chime in on the PR review, and 
we can make changes as necessary.
