I actually personally never had been listed in any of such pages
despite having contributed to a good number of Free Software projects
:) Sun/Oracle were the first to do this with me! (well, excluding some
changelogs that were cloned on the eternal Google archives, that is).

As for the OpenJDK commit list, I actually always found odd (but yet a
very welcomed honour nevertheless!) to have such a list.

Anyway, if you really want an updated list, probably the list of
contributors that voted for the Governance Board a couple of weeks ago
is the best place to start searching, I believe (but is just an
assumption on my side!) that the list has been built based on the real
contributors count.

Cheers,
Mario
