Ha, maybe instead of scraping out contributors to all technology related to a *paper* we could limit ourselves to scraping out the contributors to a* module *of a library. This seems more tractable :)
Heck though, if we wanted to give credit back to Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī we could start citing papers within SymPy's codebase. We do this already sometimes and I always find it helpful. Maybe the academic citation world will cite software more seriously if software cites the academic world more seriously.
