Re: authorship

We should definitely list acknowledgements like that
explicitly in the contributors section:  "Thanks go to
George Washington and Abraham Lincoln for contributing the
chapter 'Using GDB on President's Day'" (or something like that.)

Whether we should also put authors on the chapter itself,
I don't know.  I don't think that is our usual practice at the FSF.
But, it is not a bad idea.  I've asked RMS for his opinion.
