The Top Level

AUTHORS.txt

In the top level of the distribution, there must be a file AUTHORS.txt which contents is as follows:

Fabrice Bardèche  <fabrice.bardeche@epita.fr>
Jean Dujardin     <jean.dujardin@epita.fr>
Noël Flantier     <noel.flantier@epita.fr>

Do not include emails other than those of EPITA. We repeat: give the login@epita.fr address. Starting from TC-1, the file AUTHORS.txt is distributed thanks to the EXTRA_DIST variable in the top-level Makefile.am, but pay attention to the spelling.
