In general I try to give proper credit to those who contribute to the VDR project by mentioning them in the HISTORY and CONTRIBUTORS files that come with the VDR source. However, I only list "real people" there, not things like "VDR User" or "Donald Duck". People who don't use their real name when posting or sending private email apparently don't want to be publicly identified, so I respect that. Previously in such cases I tried to contact these people and told them that in order to be listed in the CONTRIBUTORS file I would need their real name and email address. Since this only means additional work for me, I wont do this any more.

So unless a posting or email has a (obvisously) real sender name and email address, I won't list anything I take from such a message in VDR's CONTRIBUTORS file.

Just wanted to make this clear, so that nobody wonders why their contribution hasn't been given credit.
