=head1 NAME
CREDITS - The many mod_perl contributors
=head1 DESCRIPTION
While Doug MacEachern is behind the majority of mod_perl's design,
code and documentation, he and mod_perl never would have made it this
far without the help from everyone in the mod_perl community. His
heartfelt thanks goes out to all of you!
There are thousands of people who have contributed to what mod_perl is
today. This file is here to recognize the tremendous efforts of the
major contributors to the mod_perl effort.
This file is generated by a Perl script which sorts by name.
=head1 CONTRIBUTORS
=over 4
=item Andreas Koenig (andreas.koenig@franz.ww.tu-berlin.de)
For *lots* of bug spotting, fixing and patching
Introducing Apache::Registry
CGI.pm overhaul efforts (aka CGI::XA & CGI::Switch)
Various contributions to the Apache/Perl API
PAUSE efforts beyond the call of "duty"
Apache::Stage and Apache::Gzip chain modules on CPAN.
Andreas was the first to run mod_perl on a production site, the Perl
Authors Upload Server, aka PAUSE.

mailing list and cvs repository.
=item David Landgren (david@landgren.net)
David maintains the mod_perl_traps.pod document.
=item Doug Bagley (doug@dejanews.com)
Doug Bagley has pinpointed some of the nastiest mod_perl bugs while
claiming to know nothing about xs. He's also made improvements to the
Apache::SIG module along with writing the valuable Apache::SizeLimit
module.
=item Edmund Mergl (E.Mergl@bawue.de)
Edmund revolutionized database connectivity with his Apache::DBI
module for persistent connections via DBI, providing a tremendous
performance boost for database intensive apps. He's also written the
popular Apache::AuthenDBI and Apache::AuthzDBI packages for
authentication and authorizing against databases via DBI.
=item Eric Bartley (bartley@pdn.cc.purdue.edu)
Eric had a big hand in implementing and testing method handlers.
He also contributed to some of the Apache/Perl API, along with
making sense of some AIX mysteries for us.

=item Gisle Aas (aas@sn.no)
Gisle wrote an early "proof-of-concept" mod_perl.c and perl_glue.xs
March 25, 1996 to be exact. While next to none of that code is
present in the current mod_perl source, as the embedded model and
XS <-> Apache API interface were changed, it was an important
insipirational kick start to what mod_perl has become today.

along with API enhancements and documentation.

Author of the Apache::Traffic module.
=item Michael Smith (mjs@iii.co.uk)
Michael contributed the Apache::ProxyPass module.
=item Michael Parker (parker@austx.tandem.com)

=head1 The Apache and Perl communities
If there was no Apache, there would be no mod_perl.
If there was no Perl, there would be no mod_perl.
We owe a great deal of thanks to The Apache Group, Larry Wall and the
perl5-porters, along with the communities that support them both.
=head1 OTHER CONTRIBUTORS
There are B<many> other people who have contributed a great deal to
mod_perl in one way or another, this list is derived from the Changes
file, activity on the modperl@apache.org list including support,
suggestions and new ideas, along with help through private mails or
other means.
This list is most likely incomplete.
My apologies if that is the case, please send me an email if you are
left out and your contribution will be recognized!
If you do not feel you've made a contribution, remember your help is
always welcome and appreciated. You should consider yourself a
contributor to the mod_perl effort even if you are simply using mod_perl!
