* If you write the code, chances are bigger that it will get into curl
faster.
+ 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.
