Zsh was originally written by Paul Falstad tt(<pf@zsh.org>).
Zsh is now maintained by the members of the zsh-workers mailing
list tt(<zsh-workers@math.gatech.edu>).  The development is currently
coordinated by Andrew Main (Zefram) tt(<zefram@zsh.org>).  The coordinator
can be contacted at tt(<coordinator@zsh.org>), but matters relating to
the code should generally go to the mailing list.
