1 Inspired by the CREDITS file from the Linux source tree, this file is,
2 likewise, at least a partial list of people who have contributed to the LLVM
3 project. The format and the next paragraph are stolen directly from that file.
5 The list is sorted by name and formatted to allow easy grepping and
6 beautification by scripts. The fields are: name (N), email (E), web-address
7 (W), PGP key ID and fingerprint (P), description (D), and snail-mail address
