@ -45,34 +45,46 @@ The Motorola 88k machine description was contributed by Devon Bowen of
Buffalo University and Torbjorn Granlund of the Swedish Institute of
Computer Science.
Mark Eichin wrote the original (incomplete) ELF back end.
Keith Knowles at the Open Software Foundation wrote the original MIPS
back end (tc-mips.c, tc-mips.h), and contributed Rose format support
that hasn't been merged in yet. Ralph Campbell worked with the MIPS
code to support a.out format.
Support for the Zilog Z8k and Hitachi H8/300 and H8/500 processors
(tc-z8k, tc-h8300, tc-h8500), and IEEE 695 object file format
Support for the Zilog Z8k and Hitachi H8/300, H8/500 and SH processors
(tc-z8k, tc-h8300, tc-h8500, tc-sh), and IEEE 695 object file format
(obj-ieee), was written by Steve Chamberlain of Cygnus Support. Steve
also modified the COFF back end to use BFD for some low-level
operations, for use with the H8/300 and AMD 29k targets.

John Gilmore worked on the AMD 29000 support. [doing what? any major
work on other parts?]
John Gilmore built the AMD 29000 support, added .include support, and
simplified the configuration of which versions accept which
pseudo-ops. He updated the 68k machine description so that Motorola's
opcodes always produced fixed-size instructions (e.g. jsr), while
synthetic instructions remained shrinkable (jbsr). John fixed many
bugs, including true tested cross-compilation support, and one bug in
relaxation that took a week and required the apocryphal one-bit fix.
Ian Lance Taylor of Cygnus Support merged the Motorola and MIT
syntaxes for the 68k, completed support for some COFF targets (68k,
i386 SVR3, and SCO Unix), and made a few other minor patches.
i386 SVR3, and SCO Unix), wrote the ECOFF support based on Michael
Meissner's mips-tfile program, wrote the PowerPC and RS/6000 support,
and made a few other minor patches.
Support for generation of listings was added by Steve Chamberlain.
Steve Chamberlain made gas able to generate listings.
Support for the HP9000/300 was contributed by Glenn Engel of HP.
Support for ELF format files has been worked on by Mark Eichin of
Cygnus Support (original, incomplete implementation), Pete Hoogenboom
at the University of Utah (HPPA mainly), Michael Meissner of the Open
Software Foundation (i386 mainly), and Ken Raeburn of Cygnus Support
(sparc, initial 64-bit support).
Several engineers at Cygnus Support have also provided many small bug
fixes and configuration enhancements.
Many others have contributed large or small bugfixes and enhancements,
including: [review ChangeLog and file comments and sort out
details...]
Allen Wirfs-Brock, of Instantiations Inc [changed app.c, but how much?]
