+and tons of other stuff.
+
+Paul Mackerras

+Paul did a lot of the initial per-architecture factoring that forms
+the basis of the 3.0 line and is also to be seen in 2.4.0. He also did
+UCode-based dynamic translation support for PowerPC, and created a set
+of ppc-linux derivatives of the 2.X release line.

+Dirk contributed the malloc-free mismatch checking stuff and various
+other bits and pieces, and acted as our KDE liaison.

+dynamic translation framework, wrote Memcheck and Addrcheck, and did
+lots of other things.

+
+Robert added file descriptor leakage checking, new library
+interception machinery, support for client allocation pools, and minor
+other tweakage.
+

+Frederic Gobry helped with autoconf and automake.  Daniel Berlin
+modified readelf's dwarf2 source line reader, written by Nick Clifton,
+for use in Valgrind.  Michael Matz and Simon Hausmann modified the GNU
+binutils demangler(s) for use in Valgrind.

+And lots and lots of other people sent bug reports, patches, and very
+helpful feedback.
