Hi,
The AUTHORS file causes a lot of pain doing backports to -maint branches. It
almost always causes conflicts, and the changes can't just be dropped
otherwise 'make syntax-check' breaks.
Is there anything preventing us from just auto generating this at dist time?
Besides, of course, needing someone to actually implement it.
As long as we don't loose the distinction between the primary maintainers
with commit access, and the patch submitters, I'm fine with auto-generating
it
