Most professional software doesn't have a list of contributors.  Are you
suggesting that we remove it?  I'm fine with that, but if we are going
to keep it, we may as well have some fun and make it look nice.  It's a
useless piece of dialog otherwise.  We may as well use it to show off
some cool things you can do with GNOME technology.
