I think there are two reasons to have names in online documentation. Firstly, showing authors which means giving readers responsibilities and contact methods. Secondary showing appreciations to contributors. So I'd like to suggest that man pages and tutorials should have names of Tetsuo and Jamie (I insist to have your name :-). For contributions, I'd like to leave decisions to Tetsuo. Regardless of the size and the purpose of the code, it should be considered as contribution if Tetsuo thinks so. Regarding myself (my name), the only place I would like to see (or I can stand to see) is the contact page. Surprisingly, I have seldom received messages from that page, therefore I have to admire keeping it. ;-) Best regards, Toshiharu Harada haradats �� gmail.com
