Update "developers" list
All, The Apache Tomcat web site has a few places where people are specifically listed by name. One is under "Who We Are"[1], and it's fairly up-to-date. (Reasonable people can disagree as to whether e.g. "jim" is a committer or a committer-emeritus.) There is another place people are listed, and it's under each version's documentation. For example, there is a list of "active developers" for Tomcat 8.5[2]. That list is quite out of date, and it looks like it's the same for all of 8.5, 9.0, 10.0, and 10.1. Is it worth updating these version-specific pages? Or maybe replace them with redirects to "Who We Are"? We have lots of contributors (myself included) who are not listed there at all. -chris [1] https://tomcat.apache.org/whoweare.html [2] http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/developers.html - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
