Was it on IRC? I do remember discussion, but forgot the answer. :( python-dev or python-checkins I think, but I don't really remember. (Not IRC though, as I only very rarely drop in on the channel) I'll search the archives. My reasoning was that Å in Åstrand was the same as Å in Ångström. Webster's dictionary (1992 edition that was on my bookshelf) has Ångström (Anders Jonas) between angstrom (the unit) and Anguilla (an island).

Do you agree that ACKS should be the same in the active branches? I'll fix the order when I merge the lists. The most important one to keep up to date is the one for the main development branch, since that should be a superset of all the others. The maintenance branches will naturally be missing new contributors (aside from those contributing bug fixes for that branch), and that's OK.

As I mentioned in a tracker comment, it may be useful to sync the lists between the main and development branches to avoid svnmerge conflicts. I think I've seen some names missing from the main branch which exist in maintenance ones.
