563344e601 Add an entry for myself in to "Who's Who".
This originally wasn't going to be quite so self-serving a commit.  But I
see that Dima has already committed the other patches to this file while
I wasn't paying attention. . .

d135bff76f Back out rev 1.57. It wasn't clear to me what was being said in rev 1.56.
Hopefully the header "Commit log" will bet tweaked to not give the
impression the example is supose to be a complete log message and thus
the text is an example of a good commit message.

86b72726db Add a new rule to the committers: respect other contributors as well.
There has been plenty of discussion about how to actually ratify
such rules, but nobody has opposed this specific rule (which is a
good show of maturity btw).

In the end the conclusion is that this is not really any different from
the rest of the tree: If it makes sense: commit it, if it creats an
uproar, back it out and paint the bikeshed.

QED.
