Usually, a contributor write a small patch, maybe 2 and 3, and then go away. An author usually invest some weeks of its time to develop or enhance an important feature. Well, these definitions are arbitrary :-) In CPython, there is a list of names (Misc/ACKS) and a list of people who have the commit access. Victor
