  Has anyone actually implemented an automatic credits update system?
  I ws thinking that it would be fairly simple.  Have a credits file in all
the right places (./src ./doc where ever) and have the file terminated by a
unique character string. (maybe /* ======== */ and/or /* -------- */ )
  Patches would insert the credit blurb on the line above the terminator.
for the generic credits. specicic patch updates could be attained the same
way only using a different separator (ie /* -=--=---= */ )
  Thoughts, comments or complaints??
