Main Developers

A special thanks from all of us goes to those who have contributed substantial and ongoing amounts of time to writing Moodle code and helping it grow. These are people who "get" what developing Moodle is all about and without whom Moodle would be a far lesser thing:

Peter C. Taylor, Art Lader, Matt Hope, Tom Murdock, Sébastien Namèche, James Miller, Dustin Rue, Holger Schadeck, Giovanni Tummarello, John Windmueller, Sean Keogh, Mitsuhiro Yoshida, Greg Barnett, Mark Kimes, Mary Hunter, Russell Jungwirth, Przemyslaw Stencel, John "Captain" Eyre, Paula Edmiston, Howard Miller, Claudio Tavares, P.

Sorry if we've forgotten to include your name here - the Moodle community is large and active so this list is difficult to maintain! Please email Martin and make your suggestions! :-)

Thanks also to everyone of you who have

• donated via the Donations page,
• contributed to the bug tracker, and
• participated in the Moodle Community

Translators

One of Moodle's strengths is the number of translations it has. Each translation takes many hours of work, as there are over 1000 phrases to translate (plus hundreds of help files!). Many of the languages have more than one contributor, sometimes working together and sometimes working serially.

Maintaining a list of all these wonderful people is too difficult, so please look at the Language download page for names and details.

The Translation Coordinator is Koen Roggemans (translation@moodle.org).
