The success of GHC has a lot to do with the large band of highly
talented people who contribute to it; this page is mainly to
acknowledge those contributions but also to give users of GHC an idea
of "who is responsible for what". In particular there are several
people who have generously agreed to look after the port of GHC to a
particular platform, or produce packages for a certain platform - the
section below lists these people and the port or packages that they
maintain.
These people currently have commit access to the GHC CVS
repository. The right hand column is a short description of what they
have done / are doing in the tree.
