List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: emacs-orgmode-bounces+geo-emacs-orgmode=m.gmane.org@gnu.org Errors-To: emacs-orgmode-bounces+geo-emacs-orgmode=m.gmane.org@gnu.org To: emacs-orgmode list Dear all, I would like to update my list with acknowledgements in the Org manual. This list is supposed to include people who have either made a decisive contribution in a certain area (like an initial proposal, a clever idea), or who have helped improve org (either an area, or as a whole) with consistent contributions, reports, testing. It should also list people who have written one of the packages (files, also in contrib). I have the feeling that this list is not complete enough. So I would like to ask you to look through this list and tell me if you can suggest additions. This may include your own contribution if you think it fits. If you don't want to suggest yourself in front of the Org-mode crowd, write to me privately. If someone has a little time at his/her hands, a good exercise would be to check all the authors of all the lisp files in Org (including contrib) and to match that against the acknowledgement list, and compile me a list of omissions. If you want to do this, announce it here on the list so that we avoid double work. I am attaching the current list below. Thanks! - Carsten * Russel Adams came up with the idea for drawers. * Thomas Baumann wrote `org-bbdb.el' and `org-mhe.el'. * Christophe Bataillon created the great unicorn logo that we use on the Org-mode website. * Alex Bochannek provided a patch for rounding timestamps. * Jan B=E2=88=9A=E2=88=82cker wrote `org-docview.el'. * Brad Bozarth showed how to pull RSS feed data into Org-mode files. * Tom Breton wrote `org-choose.el'. * Charles Cave's suggestion sparked the implementation of templates for Remember, which are now templates for capture. * Pavel Chalmoviansky influenced the agenda treatment of items with specified time. * Gregory Chernov patched support for Lisp forms into table calculations and improved XEmacs compatibility, in particular by porting `nouline.el' to XEmacs. * Sacha Chua suggested copying some linking code from Planner. * Baoqiu Cui contributed the DocBook exporter. * Eddward DeVilla proposed and tested checkbox statistics. He also came up with the idea of properties, and that there should be an API for them. * Nick Dokos tracked down several nasty bugs. * Kees Dullemond used to edit projects lists directly in HTML and so inspired some of the early development, including HTML export. He also asked for a way to narrow wide table columns. * Thomas S. Dye contributed documentation on Worg and helped integrating the Org-Babel documentation into the manual. * Christian Egli converted the documentation into Texinfo format, patched CSS formatting into the HTML exporter, and inspired the agenda. * David Emery provided a patch for custom CSS support in exported HTML agendas. * Nic Ferrier contributed mailcap and XOXO support. * Miguel A. Figueroa-Villanueva implemented hierarchical checkboxes. * John Foerch figured out how to make incremental search show context around a match in a hidden outline tree. * Raimar Finken wrote `org-git-line.el'. * Mikael Fornius works as a mailing list moderator. * Austin Frank works as a mailing list moderator. * Eric Fraga drove the development of BEAMER export with ideas and testing. * Niels Giesen had the idea to automatically archive DONE trees. * Nicolas Goaziou rewrote much of the plain list code. * Kai Grossjohann pointed out key-binding conflicts with other packages. * Bernt Hansen has driven much of the support for auto-repeating tasks, task state change logging, and the clocktable. His clear explanations have been critical when we started to adopt the Git version control system. * Manuel Hermenegildo has contributed various ideas, small fixes and patches. * Phil Jackson wrote `org-irc.el'. * Scott Jaderholm proposed footnotes, control over whitespace between folded entries, and column view for properties. * Matt Jones wrote MobileOrg Android. * Tokuya Kameshima wrote `org-wl.el' and `org-mew.el'. * Shidai Liu ("Leo") asked for embedded LaTeX and tested it. He also provided frequent feedback and some patches. * Matt Lundin has proposed last-row references for table formulas and named invisible anchors. He has also worked a lot on the FAQ. * David Maus wrote `org-atom.el', maintains the issues file for Org, and is a prolific contributor on the mailing list with competent replies, small fixes and patches. * Jason F. McBrayer suggested agenda export to CSV format. * Max Mikhanosha came up with the idea of refiling. * Dmitri Minaev sent a patch to set priority limits on a per-file basis. * Stefan Monnier provided a patch to keep the Emacs-Lisp compiler happy. * Richard Moreland wrote MobileOrg for the iPhone. * Rick Moynihan proposed allowing multiple TODO sequences in a file and being able to quickly restrict the agenda to a subtree. * Todd Neal provided patches for links to Info files and Elisp forms. * Greg Newman refreshed the unicorn logo into its current form. * Tim O'Callaghan suggested in-file links, search options for general file links, and TAGS. * Osamu Okano wrote `orgcard2ref.pl', a perl program to create a text version of the reference card. * Takeshi Okano translated the manual and David O'Toole's tutorial into Japanese. * Oliver Oppitz suggested multi-state TODO items. * Scott Otterson sparked the introduction of descriptive text for links, among other things. * Pete Phillips helped during the development of the TAGS feature, and provided frequent feedback. * Martin Pohlack provided the code snippet to bundle character insertion into bundles of 20 for undo. * T.V. Raman reported bugs and suggested improvements. * Matthias Rempe (Oelde) provided ideas, Windows support, and quality control. * Paul Rivier provided the basic implementation of named footnotes. He also acted as mailing list moderator for some time. * Kevin Rogers contributed code to access VM files on remote hosts. * Frank Ruell solved the mystery of the `keymapp nil' bug, a conflict with `allout.el'. * Jason Riedy generalized the send-receive mechanism for Orgtbl tables with extensive patches. * Philip Rooke created the Org reference card, provided lots of feedback, developed and applied standards to the Org documentation. * Christian Schlauer proposed angular brackets around links, among other things. * Paul Sexton wrote `org-ctags.el'. * Linking to VM/BBDB/Gnus was first inspired by Tom Shannon's `organizer-mode.el'. * Ilya Shlyakhter proposed the Archive Sibling, line numbering in literal examples, and remote highlighting for referenced code lines. * Stathis Sideris wrote the `ditaa.jar' ASCII to PNG converter that is now packaged into Org's `contrib' directory. * Daniel Sinder came up with the idea of internal archiving by locking subtrees. * Dale Smith proposed link abbreviations. * James TD Smith has contributed a large number of patches for useful tweaks and features. * Adam Spiers asked for global linking commands, inspired the link extension system, added support for mairix, and proposed the mapping API. * Ulf Stegemann created the table to translate special symbols to HTML, LaTeX, UTF-8, Latin-1 and ASCII. * Andy Stewart contributed code to `org-w3m.el', to copy HTML content with links transformation to Org syntax. * David O'Toole wrote `org-publish.el' and drafted the manual chapter about publishing. * Sebastien Vauban reported many issues with LaTeX and BEAMER export. * Stefan Vollmar organized a video-recorded talk at the Max-Planck-Institute for Neurology.
