Hi:

Suresh (cc’d) indicated that we should look to reduce the authors at the “top” of the document as the IESG is pushing for limiting this to 5. We currently have 8 authors.

While it is only ONE measure of contribution, the following link provides the GITHUB commits by person:

https://github.com/dhcwg/rfc3315bis/graphs/contributors

Other contributions which this does not show are involvement in discussions (either in our jitsu or face-to-face (@ IETF) meetings). And, in reviewing and editing some of the text (such as in google docs).

In the co-authors call today (Ted, Tim, and I), we discussed this. Ted feels it is worth pushing back on this as everyone has contributed – it isn’t like we had “fake” authors that just pushed to have their name on the document.

Certainly, there are a few people that have contributed less over time, but that doesn’t diminish their earlier contributions.

So, what should we do?


  1.  If there’s anyone on the authors list that is OK with being removed from the initial list of authors (you’d still be in the authors list in the end), let me know.
  2.  If anyone has any thoughts on this topic, please comment.
