Bug Description

I have noticed recently that only one person of the votebot team is named for anything to do with the bot. As I am part of the team that is the VoteBot development team, I do not feel this is right by any standards. Greed should not take over. I have done work for this bot, I have triaged bugs, I have even contributed a bit of code, of which without it, the bot would cease to work correctly. I am sorry if ths is the incorrect place to send my "wishes" to, but I believe this should be know and handled appropriately. I was taught credit shall be given where credit is due, and in my opinion, credit is most certainly due here. Either list it as "Created by the VoteBot deveopment team an all contributors." or do as I have suggested above, with the name of the main developer "and all contributors". Thank you for hearing my concerns.

Just to be clear, as a grep of the VoteBot source will confirm, the only place that any name is mentioned in the source is on line 2633 of the voteBot.pl file. I feel it is an unfair statement to say that I have not updated that section out of greed.

Either way, I have gone ahead and patched this bug. It is now fixed in Revision 72: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~votebot-dev/votebot/trunk/revision/72
