[edit] Authorship

I'd suggest changing "developed by Jean-Pierre Charras" for "Initially developed by Jean-Pierre Charras", since now there's a certain amount of developers collaborating into it and I think it would be meaningful to mention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.218.10.96 (talk) 09:19, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

If some of those are significant independent coverage of the topic, add references to the article, as the notability tag suggests, and then say you've done so on the AfD discussion, and maybe you'll make a difference. Dicklyon 18:35, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
