Getting credits

We're ok with people getting credits for whatever contribution they did to Tails. Sometimes this is publicly available (for example: in issues, git history, etc.), in which case this is enough for us.

In some cases such info might not be publicly visible (for example: facilitation work done for meetings or data that was deleted for some reason). In this case, if the contributor so wish, we're ok with adding explicit public credit somewhere they can link to. If that's your case, please contact us.
