* The original design for the ``.egg`` format and the ``pkg_resources`` API was
  co-created by Phillip Eby and Bob Ippolito. Bob also implemented the first
  version of ``pkg_resources``, and supplied the macOS operating system version
  compatibility algorithm.

* Ian Bicking implemented many early &quot;creature comfort&quot; features of
  easy_install, including support for downloading via Sourceforge and
  Subversion repositories. Ian's comments on the Web-SIG about WSGI
  application deployment also inspired the concept of &quot;entry points&quot; in eggs,
  and he has given talks at PyCon and elsewhere to inform and educate the
  community about eggs and setuptools.

* Jim Fulton contributed time and effort to build automated tests of various
  aspects of ``easy_install``, and supplied the doctests for the command-line
  ``.exe`` wrappers on Windows.

* Phillip J. Eby is the seminal author of setuptools, and
  first proposed the idea of an importable binary distribution format for
  Python application plug-ins.

* Significant parts of the implementation of setuptools were funded by the Open
  Source Applications Foundation, to provide a plug-in infrastructure for the
  Chandler PIM application. In addition, many OSAF staffers (such as Mike
  &quot;Code Bear&quot; Taylor) contributed their time and stress as guinea pigs for the
  use of eggs and setuptools, even before eggs were &quot;cool&quot;.  (Thanks, guys!)

* Tarek Ziad is the principal author of the Distribute fork, which
  re-invigorated the community on the project, encouraged renewed innovation,
  and addressed many defects.

* Jason R. Coombs performed the merge with Distribute, maintaining the
  project for several years in coordination with the Python Packaging
  Authority (PyPA).
