I'm putting together a book about Ubuntu, and I would like to include a
list of people who have made the most significant contributions to the
development of Ubuntu and Linux in general. I have the usual suspects --
Linus Torvalds, Richard Stallman, Andrew Tanenbaum, Ian Murdock, Mark
Shuttleworth -- but after that it's hard to clearly see who stands out.
Perhaps some of you who have a longer history with Linux than I do could
indicate who really made a difference for you, and why. I want to say
something more than 'X is a really great developer' if I can. Pointers
to quotes or interviews would be handy too.
Thanks in advance,
Jon.
Hello Jon,
You could look at some the authors found in the kernel Documentation
files. There's heaps there.
