Yah, I never felt a need to add my name all over the place in the code whenever I wrote a function or fixed something that wasnt working right. I cant count how many times I have checked in code or bug fixes, and I usually dont leave a changelog entry. I mean in the last few months I have added maybe 3 or 4 changelog entries, but I have done a LOT more work than that for the project. Yah a page for contributions would be nice, but then again, I never contributed code to the project so I would be recognized. There is a LOT of stuff I have done for the project that doesnt have my rubber stamped nickname on it. Do I care its not? Hell no. I'm sure most of the other devs feel the same way. A simple thank you is all we require, sometimes not even that :P I totally agree with dev on this one, (although I wouldnt have put it quite some bluntly :lol: ), you shouldnt contribute code to an opensource project and expect recognition. Its nice when it happens, but no programmer should do something just for the expectation of praise.
