Thanks, I haven't checked it out yet. I believe you also have another patch
pending review/commit, don't you? (Checking) Posted 4 Aug 2009 it was.

Fellow list readers: I am in a big need of help to get patches reviewed,
tested and commited.

There's the docs/THANKS which lists all contributors by name and there's the
./README that lists a special copyright notice.

In general I think the appropriate thing is to add a piece to the file(s) that
actually are affected, or we possibly create a single central location for
that sort of information. So far most companies involved have been very laxed
with how they have (not) been mentioned, but I don't think that rules out that
we can or should recognize companies' donations and rights.
