+This is an attempt to give credit to the people who contributed in some way to the mpg123 project.
+There are names and email addresses listed. Please use these addresses only to contact contributors with some question about their mpg123 contribution.
+You are explicitly not allowed to send them unwanted business offers or to question the quality of their sex life.
+--------------------
+
+Being on the list of contributing authors not necessarily means that there
+is significant copyright in parts of the source code. There are obviously
+contributions of differing complexity. I try to mention people who motivated
+changes at least by suggesting some definite code changes, even if their
+code did not enter the mpg123 source verbatim. Trivial changes like pointing
+out ovbious syntax errors that make compilers cry do not land here.

+Co-initiator of the revived mpg123 project, but not that involved anymore:

+Special thanks go to Taihei, the person who keeps the assembly optimisations alive
+and takes care of portability to OSX/iOS platforms.
