Well once we push directly into the core documentation I agree that
outside of release notes (although you just brought that up in another
thread) we don't need to be mentioning contributions like that. Those
who have contributed are in the logs.

Further those who have provided reasonable contribution really should be
mentioned on the contributors page that is up for discussion which would
make the rest of this moot yes?
