I also liked the way a single point of reference could be used to list all sorts of FreeBSD contributors. It is not only a matter of being able to remember only one URL, but also a social aspect of the Project that I heartily endorse and support. In a way, listing all the people who are contributors, committers, or part of any FreeBSD team in a *single* article is a good way of showing that we are all a part of "one, and the same team"---members of the same community. I always feel proud about this aspect of FreeBSD :)
