Thanks for authors.md. It is very useful for NY postcard tradition.

But it hides all plugins authors in postcss org. Maybe we can look into first commit author to get real author name?

Fully agree. Plan going ahead is to:

  • lookup who was the first person to commit to each plugin
  • create a table that tags each author to each plugin here, that way if there are like any disputes or anything like that can be resolved
  • once all disputes have been resolved, and all parties are happy, I will open a PR that changes all instances of postcss as the author to whomever the rightful author is.
  • as a bonus, I'd like to like announce that any other plugin authors that are listed as organizations a chance to update the data via a pull request

Related to #13, might we use https://api.github.com/repos/${ user }/${ name }/contributors to get an Array of contributors, rather than sniff the commits ourselves?

We could attach this data to the plugin entry:

{
  "contributors": [
    {
      "user": "${ login }",
      "contributions": "${ contributions }"
    },
    ...
  ]
}
