I wouldn't even want to begin mentioning names at the risk I might leave one out, but what would Linux be without the kernel hackers, driver developers, and document writers scattered throughout the world, plus the distribution maintainers and GNU. If you're going to be sending dollar bills to Linus (what's the exchange rate??), you might want to look through the CREDITS file and get some change ready.
