Django was originally created in late 2003 at World Online, the Web division of the Lawrence Journal-World newspaper in Lawrence, Kansas. Here is an inevitably incomplete list of MUCH-APPRECIATED CONTRIBUTORS -- people who have submitted patches, reported bugs, added translations, helped answer newbie questions, and generally made Django that much better: Aaron Cannon Aaron Swartz Aaron T. Myers Adam Johnson Adam Vandenberg Adrian Holovaty Adrien Lemaire Afonso Fernández Nogueira AgarFu Ahmad Alhashemi Ahmad Al-Ibrahim ajs Akis Kesoglou Aksel Ethem Akshesh Doshi alang@bright-green.com Alasdair Nicol Albert Wang Alcides Fonseca Aleksandra Sendecka Alexander Dutton Alexander Myodov Alex Couper Alex Dedul Alex Gaynor Alex Hill Alex Ogier Alex Robbins Alexey Boriskin Aljosa Mohorovic Amit Chakradeo Amit Ramon Amit Upadhyay A.
