Contributors list

[dopplershift]

I think it's good to have a contributors list, but that's by no means a consensus open source view. Either way, CONTRIBUTORS.md is out of date, so that's even worse. Current ideas:

1. Automatically generate a list and include in docs
2. Generate one for the release tarballs -- not sure yet if this is GitHub, or just needs to be in setup.py for Travis.

Either way, this is a start:

git log --format='%aN' | sort -uf

Also need a .mailmap to remove duplicates.

Thanks for finding the issue I couldn't find the other day for some reason--I knew it was around somewhere.

Automation not done yet.

Automation all that remains, but pulling this off the milestone.

how to find the contribution, i mean which folders?
context : I want to segregate the folders with high freq of commits/contributors

[dopplershift]

@vinodneelakantam I think that information is better retrieved from the git history itself. I'm sure there have to be tools out there to help with that kind of analysis.
