What Peter has said about this is that he lists everyone whose name
has appeared in commit messages over thus-and-such a time frame.
So it doesn't matter which branch is involved, just when the contribution
was made. That process is fine with me; I'm just seeking a bit more
clarity as to what the time frames are.
