The Debian GNU/Linux FAQ
Chapter 15 - General information about the FAQ

15.1 Authors

The first edition of this FAQ was made and maintained by J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) and Chuck Stickelman. Authors of the rewritten Debian GNU/Linux FAQ are Susan G. Kleinmann and Sven Rudolph. After them, the FAQ was maintained by Santiago Vila and, later, by Josip Rodin. The current maintainer is Javier Fernandez-Sanguino.

Parts of the information came from:

• The Debian-1.1 release announcement, by Bruce Perens.

• The Linux FAQ, by Ian Jackson.

• Debian Mailing Lists Archives,

• the dpkg programmers' manual and the Debian Policy manual (see What other documentation exists on and for a Debian system?, Section 11.1)

• many developers, volunteers, and beta testers, and

• the flaky memories of its authors. :-)

The authors would like to thank all those who helped make this document possible.
