1.5 Who makes cURL?
cURL and libcurl are not made by any single individual. Sure, Daniel
Stenberg writes the major parts, but various people's submissions are
important and crucial. Anyone can post their changes and improvements and
have them inserted in the main sources (of course on the condition that
developers agree on that the fixes are good).
The list of contributors in the bottom of the man page is only a small part
of all the people that every day provide us with bug reports, suggestions,
ideas and source code.
curl is developed by a community, with Daniel at the wheel.
1.6 What do you get for making cURL?
Project cURL is entirely free and open, without any commercial interests or
money involved. No person gets paid in any way for developing curl. We all
do this volountarily on our spare time.
We get some help from companies. Contactor Data hosts the curl web site and
the main mailing list, Haxx owns the curl web site's domain and
sourceforge.net hosts several project tools we take advantage from like the
bug tracker, mailing lists and more.
