In-Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Here is a thought regarding the who's who in gimp - perhaps add one more category, author, artisit, documenter, and founder (or contributor or something along those lines) - with the intent being those ACTIVE authors (et. al.) are listed as specified, and past contributors are lumped together. Maybe review the list at the end of each major release and if your name isn't in the change log for version X, then you get moved (or stay) in the founder category.

If > in doubt, just keep it that way. Perhaps I should add that I don't expect a lot of changes at all. There are probably one or two handful of people listed as author who should also be mentioned as documenters and/or artists and a few of them have never contributed any code and should thus not be listed as authors.

This isn't really a simple task for someone who has just joined GIMP development. We have a number of people who are around for some years already and should know quite a few of the names in the list of authors. Probably one of them should do it. Whoever wants to give it a try, the ChangeLogs will be a useful resource. At the moment, almost everyone is listed as "author". If in doubt, just keep it that way.

I believe that compared to coding C++, this is supposed to be considered simple - the generic, old, mundane task of compiling a list of names. ^^ I believe that in the "olden days" this used to be the sort of job an entry level worker would do in a corporation. > There are too many names in that file I've never heard of and I have no > interest at all go digging through ancient maillogs or changelogs just > to figure out if someone was a contributor or doc-writer or whatever. What about a collaborative effort? E.g. someone goes and checks through these things, and then someone can double check. Or the list can be split in half, and then if there's ones we're unsure about we send them to the other person (and vice versa). -- ~Mike - Just my two cents - No man is an island, and no man is unable. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

I am pretty sure that it is *not* simple and that there are very few people being able to do that. And no, I don't think I could do this. There are too many names in that file I've never heard of and I have no interest at all go digging through ancient maillogs or changelogs just to figure out if someone was a contributor or doc-writer or whatever.

[Gimp-developer] authors.xml, volunteer needed
Hi, over the weekend I have done a change to the About dialog that I wanted to do for quite a while already. By means of GtkAboutDialog, we now have proper license and version information in the About dialog, a clickable link to the GIMP website and also better credits. Don't be afraid, the nice fade effects with the names of the contributors at the bottom of the About graphics are still there. But the dialog now also features a number of credits lists. GtkAboutDialog accepts the following categories: authors, artists and documenters. I have changed the format of the authors.xml file to reflect this. Each contributor can now have multiple roles and the lists that are passed to the About dialog are created from this information. Every contributor listed in authors.xml with a role of "author" will end up in the "Written by" section of the Credits, people with the role "artist" are listed in "Artwork by", "documenters" go into "Documented by". This all happens transparently, so all that needs to be done now is to assign roles. So far I have only done this exemplarily for a few names: http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/gimp/authors.xml?view=markup I am now looking for a volunteer to go over authors.xml and check what roles apply to the people listed there. Perhaps also check that noone important is missing (last time we did that was before the 2.2 release). No coding skills required, you don't even need to know anything but the mere basics about XML. Some knowledge of the GIMP history will definitely help though...
