As a prolific maintainer of several dozen FOSS projects, I’m often asked how I can get so much done, being just one person. The answer is: I’m not just one person. I have enjoyed the help of thousands of talented people who have contributed to these works. Without them, none of the projects I work on would be successful.
I’d like to take a moment to recognize and thank all of the people who have participated in these endeavours. If you’ve enjoyed any of the projects I’ve worked on, you owe thanks to some of these wonderful people. The following is an incomplete list of authors who have contributed to one or more of the projects I have started:

Each of these is a distinct person, with their own lives and aspirations, who took time out of those lives to help build some cool software. I owe everything to these wonderful, talented, dedicated people. Thank you, everyone. Let’s keep up the good work, together.
