+# Stdlib's contributors
+
+This file lists major contributors to _stdlib_. If you think you
+should be on it, please raise a [github][] issue. Thanks also to all
+those who have contributed bug fixes, suggestions and support.
+
+Gary V. Vaughan now maintains _stdlib_, having rewritten and reorganised
+the libraries for hygiene, consistent argument type checking in debug
+mode, and object orientation, in addition to adding a lot of new
+functionality.
+
+Reuben Thomas started the standard libraries project, wrote many of the
+libraries, and integrated code from other authors.
+
+John Belmonte helped set the project up on lua-users, and contributed
+to the early organisation of the libraries.
+
+The call trace debugging code is based on test/trace-calls.lua from
+the Lua 5.0 distribution.
+
+Jamie Webb contributed several miscellaneous functions from his
+private standard library.
+
+Johann Hibschman supplied the code on which math.floor and math.round
+were based.
