Update Acknowledgements about lkmpg HOT 8 CLOSED

We can open the new issue or use the current one to tell the contributor to give us their main email.
By the way, my main email is [email protected]. And the linzhien is also my sub-account.
Thanks.

A good example is The Not So Short Introduction to LATEX 2ε

Since we have received the contributions from individuals, it is time to update acknowledgement list. Preliminary steps:

1. Create a new TeX document, contrib.tex, which preserves the names and email address in alphabetical order.
2. Include contrib.tex in section "Acknowledgements"
3. Ensure each contributor is listed within compact layout.

I manage to write a script to generate the contributors' list and parse the output into contrib.tex
However, some contributors are duplicated due to different email addresses they use:

This can be solved via configuring .mailmap manually, but I don't know which email is their main email.

Currently the output can be checked in here:

You can prepare the script(s) in directory scripts/, which is intended for maintenance purpose. The format of contributor list can be as following:

Name (to be listed in LKMPG)[, Hanyu Pinyin], email-1[, email-2][, email 3][, remark (usually GitHub account)]

Take me for example,

Jim Huang, Ching-Chun Huang, [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], jserv

Then, we can make use of grep to see if the contributor was already listed or not.

Only the preferable name would appear in the Acknowledgements section of LKMPG. No email address is shown except me (as the maintainer).

I know, the reason why I wanted to know the main mail of contributors is that I want to maintain the list as the example source
code you mentioned before (https://github.com/oetiker/lshort/blob/master/book/src/contrib.tex).
Which is in the format of
Name, % Email
Where the % causes latex ignore the info after it.

I can also make scripts to generate the list as you said, that is

Name (to be listed in LKMPG)[, Hanyu Pinyin], email-1[, email-2][, email 3][, remark (usually GitHub account)]

Which puts different emails in the same line if they belong to the same name.
Then use another script to parse the list and generate the contrib.tex.
But I wonder how will we deal with the situation that two different contributors use the same name in commit logs.
If that thing happened, will we put their emails in the same line or another new line?

It implies that we have much stronger community at that time. We can then manipulate manually.
