 EXIM ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
 
+This file is divided into two parts.  The first is the original list maintained
+by Exim's author, Philip Hazel, before he retired.  That has two sub-lists of
+contributors.  The second main part is an attempt to bring this up-to-date,
+using information from ChangeLog and git.
+
+Names may well occur more than once.
+
+There was a five year gap.  It is unlikely that this file is complete.
+If you contributed and are not listed, then *please* let us know.  Even if you
+don't much care, we want to acknowledge your help.  A contribution isn't just
+code, it includes reporting real bugs, helping with tracking problems down,
+documentation fixes and more.
+
+(Note that we have patches from folks in various countries and Latin1 is not
+ sufficient to handle all of their names acceptably.
+ This file should be in UTF-8).

 I have not been very good at keeping a proper record of all the people who have
 sent in patches and other contributions to Exim. I am going to try to do better
 in the future by keeping a record in this file. First, I'll put a list of all

-  Note: at current time, Exim is maintained in git; the commit messages
-  typically credit sources, at the very least.  Also the ChangeLog file
-  will record who provided patches.  This file is not very up-to-date.

+The Exim Maintainers Lists
+==========================
+
+We'll start with the Exim Maintainers, who are the people with commit
+access to the master git repository and a couple more folk; then we'll list
+known contributors since the lists above.
+
+For the Maintainers, we may list primary focus area.  All maintainers
+will have contributed to work outside those areas.  The maintainers'
+contributions are initialled in ChangeLog.  Changes from before maintainership
+should be listed as a contributor.
+
+For other contributors, we will attempt to track all contributions.  Note that
+the entries per-person were added initially by scanning back through the
+ChangeLog and git, so are not in chronological order.
+
+[ With names from all over the world, we need one sort order.  I've arbitrarily
+  decreed it to be "normal British address-book sort order, but based on family
+  name rather than whichever comes last and using whatever seems sanest for
+  sort order of characters which do not collate onto an English character",
+  which should handle the majority of cases.  If it is not adequate for some
+  situation, we'll resolve it then.
+  We leave out titles and honourifics, just names and handles. ]
