So, who should be credited as co-authors of this patch and in what order, if and when it gets committed? If X started this patch and then Kuntal did a little more work on it, I would credit it as: X and Kuntal Ghosh If Kuntal did major work on it, though, then I would think of something more like: Kuntal Ghosh, based on an earlier patch from X If he didn't use any of the old code but just the idea, then I would do something like this: Kuntal Ghosh, inspired by a previous patch from X So, who are all of the people involved in the effort to produce this patch, and what's the right way to attribute credit? -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
