digitalmars.D.announce - A list of all the awesome people who made D possible

D wouldn't be this powerful, rocking language as it is today

To start showing our gratitude and as a token of appreciation, we 
have started listing all the awesome people who made D possible 
on dlang.org:

https://dlang.org/contributors.html

The upcoming 2.078.0 release notes will also contain a listing of 
all the amazing people who made 2.078 a reality:

https://dlang.org/changelog/pending.html

This information is aggregated over all core D repositories (dmd, 
druntime, phobos, tools, dlang.org, installer).
For the nerds, as of now the information is extracted from 45389 
commits.
For more details, see:

https://github.com/dlang/tools/blob/master/contributors.d

(it runs on the CLI too)

if (!contributorList.canFind(yourName)) {
    "Find a bug or improvement idea today and make a PR 
;-)".writeln;
}

Cheers,

He'll appear the next time the list will be refreshed, assuming 
https://github.com/dlang/druntime/pull/1989 get merged.

We could include dlang/dconf.org into the list of repositories 
parsed (Ali has made a couple of PRs there). At the moment the 
script only looks at dlang/dmd, dlang/druntime, dlang/phobos, 
dlang/dlang.org, dlang/tools and dlang/installer.
However, the `dconf.org` repository is rather big:

Cool stuff!

Would it be possible to apply a better style to that page, e.g., to wrap
the list into multiple columns?  A long page with a single column of
names is hard to read.

great. yet i think that the page should note that people are listed in 
alphabetical order, not in any "importance" order.

There are a few dups:

- "Adam D. Ruppe" and "adamdruppe"
- "UplinkCoder" and "Stefan Koch"
- "Hackerpilot" and "Brian Schott"
- "Iain Buclaw" and "ibuclaw"
- "Timothee Cour" and "timotheecour"
- "Abscissa" and "Nick Sabalausky"

Probably a few others that are less obvious, but that's only 
1.05% anyway.
