In the past they have let most requests for deletion go for 30 days before fulfilling them. There's been some exceptions, but for the most part is has stuck to that.

Account deletions used to be processed only after 30 days.

Did you guys notice the contributors file at the end of that with everyone in it?

Question: if you're using Github, that only shows the GH contributors, not all the contributors in total, which means it doesn't include any contributions prior to Github.
Considering that you're calling us out for removing ex-devs credits, how does it work that that's essentially what you're proposing? Or do the SMF team contributions prior to ElkArte's formation on Github not count?
Seems a bit hypocritical to me. (And I'm one of those people who is trying to just list everyone, dev or not, that contributed to the project. I'm all for crediting contributions regardless of what badge (or not) they held at the time.)

No harm either in keeping them, I think the contrib file is a good thing to do. SMF's one should be a good starting point, we can trim and add as needed according to our own list of contributors.
Then, the credit page can be used to list the active contributors or something like that.

The ElkArte contributors are just that, those listed on GitHub, link it, we could also add the list at a release date if we wanted something static showing as well.
For the base code which we used to build on, we could add another section that makes special acknowledgement of that project and its members. To be safe we could just get the 2.1 list (whatever is decided) and use that.
