Django was originally created in late 2003 at World Online, the Web division of the Lawrence Journal-World newspaper in Lawrence, Kansas. Here is an inevitably incomplete list of MUCH-APPRECIATED CONTRIBUTORS -- people who have submitted patches, reported bugs, added translations, helped answer newbie questions, and generally made Django that much better: Gisle Aas Chris Adams Christopher Adams Mathieu Agopian Roberto Aguilar ajs alang@bright-green.com A S Alam Andi Albrecht Marty Alchin Ahmad Alhashemi Ahmad Al-Ibrahim Antoni Aloy Daniel Alves Barbosa de Oliveira Vaz Florian Apolloner AgarFu James Aylett Dagur Páll Ammendrup Collin Anderson Jeff Anderson Marian Andre Andreas Victor Andrée andy@jadedplanet.net Fabrice Aneche ant9000@netwise.it arien David Ascher atlithorn Jökull Sólberg Auðunsson Arthur Aymeric Augustin av0000@mail.ru David Avsajanishvili Mike Axiak Niran Babalola Christopher Babiak Vitaly Babiy Morten Bagai Jeff Balogh Mikaël Barbero Randy Barlow Scott Barr Raphaël Barrois Jiri Barton Jorge Bastida Ned Batchelder batiste@dosimple.ch Batman Georg "Hugo" Bauer Oliver Beattie Chris Beaven Brian Beck Doug Beck Shannon -jj Behrens Esdras Beleza Božidar Benko Chris Bennett James Bennett Danilo Bargen Shai Berger berto Julian Bez Arvis Bickovskis Natalia Bidart Mark Biggers Paul Bissex Loïc Bistuer Simon Blanchard Jérémie Blaser Craig Blaszczyk David Blewett Artem Gnilov Eric Boersma Matt Boersma Joel Bohman Matías Bordese Nate Bragg Sean Brant Andrew Brehaut David Brenneman Anthony Briggs Orne Brocaar Justin Bronn brut.alll@gmail.com bthomas btoll@bestweb.net Jonathan Buchanan Jacob Burch Stephen Burrows Max Burstein Keith Bussell C8E Chris Cahoon Juan Manuel Caicedo Trevor Caira Aaron Cannon Brett Cannon Ricardo Javier Cárdenes Medina Jeremy Carbaugh Graham Carlyle Juan Catalano Antonio Cavedoni cedric@terramater.net Chris Chamberlin Greg Chapple Amit Chakradeo ChaosKCW Simon Charette Kowito Charoenratchatabhan Sengtha Chay ivan.chelubeev@gmail.com Bryan Chow Tom Christie Antonis Christofides Michal Chruszcz Can Burak Çilingir Andrew Clark Ian Clelland Travis Cline Russell Cloran colin@owlfish.com crankycoder@gmail.com Paul Collier Paul Collins Robert Coup Alex Couper Deric Crago Brian Fabian Crain David Cramer Pete Crosier Matt Croydon Jure Cuhalev Leah Culver Raúl Cumplido flavio.curella@gmail.com Tome Cvitan John D'Agostino dackze+django@gmail.com Jim Dalton Mihai Damian David Danier Dirk Datzert Jonathan Daugherty (cygnus) dave@thebarproject.com david@kazserve.org Jason Davies (Esaj) Richard Davies Alex Dedul Matt Dennenbaum deric@monowerks.com Max Derkachev Carlos Matías de la Torre Rajesh Dhawan Sander Dijkhuis Jordan Dimov Riccardo Di Virgilio Nebojša Dorđević dne@mayonnaise.net dready Maximillian Dornseif Daniel Duan Aram Dulyan Jeremy Dunck Andrew Durdin dusk@woofle.net Andy Dustman Alexander Dutton J.
