Note: this list of credits is relatively discontinued. We now prefer the list of contributors and reviewers from our different projects on https://github.com/chamilo

# Core contributors / Core team

The core contributors are the people who contributed most to the Chamilo software in the past. We are eternally thankful to them for having demonstrated a very high level of commitment, contributing their time and ideas to the project.

# Our special thanks also go to

(in no particular order - bug reporters are only listed when having contributed 4 reports or more) Note that we are infinitely grateful to our translators, having made the spread of Chamilo to other cultures possible. Sadly, we aren't quite as organized as we would like, and we haven't been able to sort the real translators out from people having just registered on our translation portal. This is on our TO DO list, so please be just a little more patient. We know we can count on you! Thank you. Your efforts mean a lot to us!

# The Chamilo Association

The Chamilo Association is very present inside the organizational structure of the Chamilo community, yet it tries to avoid interfering in the development of the software. It acts as a neutral organization supporting the development of the Chamilo software, and improving its popularity.
