I had asked Jari: > I think that your tool does not take any account of people listed as > Contributors who are otherwise not in the list of authors. > > I'm concerned about our 5-author limits, and the difficultly this may > present to other pushes to have RFCs better recognized by tenure track > committees. He answered: > This is late… i have not had time to maintain the tools. Sorry. But > going over author statistics issues today. I then suggested that maybe someone else might want to step forward. >Actually, my tool *does* take into account people listed in Contributor >sections. Not ones in Acknowedgement sections. Of course, the recognition is >based on natural language, so it is far from perfect. >But yes, if you are listed as a contributor in an RFC you will be listed by >my tool - it does not differentiate between authors and contributors. And I thought that this was a useful thing to get out there.
