# Add a list of contributors to thank.
+ # Stages:
+ # 1. Get the list of authors from the last release til now, both name and
+ # email.
+ # 2. Sort and uniqify.
+ # 3. Remove googlers. (This is why the email is needed)
+ # 4. Cut the email address, leaving only the name.
+ # 5-n. Remove trailing spaces and newlines, substituting with a comman and a
+ # space, removing any trailing spaces again.
