1 | The THANKS file: |
---|
2 | |
---|
3 | All distributions should contain a `THANKS' file containing a two column list |
---|
4 | of the contributors, one per line, alphabetically sorted. The left column gives |
---|
5 | the contributor's name, while the right column gives the last known good email |
---|
6 | address for this contributor. This list should be introduced with a wording |
---|
7 | similar to this one: |

9 | MaNGOS THANKS file |
---|
10 | |
---|
11 | MaNGOS has originally been written by Team Python and WoW Daemon Team. Many |
---|
12 | people further contributed to MaNGOS by reporting problems, suggesting various |
---|
13 | improvements or submitting actual code. |
---|
14 | |
---|
15 | Here is a list of these people. Help me keep it complete and exempt of errors. |
---|
16 | |
---|
17 | Special thanks should also go out to the WowwoW team. We have gained help from |
---|
18 | them many times in the creation of this project. Keep up the good work guys. |
---|
19 | |
---|
20 | Thanks should also go out to the Ludmilla team, who are also providing the |
---|
21 | community with a great server. We have not gained too much help from them, |
---|
22 | but we have recieved some. |
---|
23 | |
---|
24 | The easiest policy with this file is to thank everyone who contributes to the |
---|
25 | project, without judging the value of the contribution. |
---|
26 | |
---|
27 | Unlike `AUTHORS', the `THANKS' file is not maintained for legal reasons. It is |
---|
28 | maintained to thank all the contributors that helped you out in your project. |
---|
29 | The `AUTHORS' file can not be used for this purpose because certain |
---|
30 | contributions, like bug reports or ideas and suggestions do not require legal |
---|
31 | paper exchanges. |
---|
32 | |
---|
33 | You can also decide to send some kind of special greeting when you initially |
---|
34 | add a name to your `THANKS' file. The mere presense of a name in `THANKS' is |
---|
35 | then a flag to you that the initial greeting has been sent. |
---|
36 | |
---|
37 | TBD |
