Robert G. Brown rgb@phy.duke.edu Primary author and maintainer of RPM versions and original sources.

Dirk Eddelbuettel edd@debian.org Maintainer of Debian versions and contributor of the R interface.

David Bauer astgtciv@gatech.edu Debugger and fixer extraordinaire, contributor of the aes and threefish “gold standard” rngs and major factor in the fixing of kstest so that it is now “exact”.

Many other individuals have contributed to dieharder at this point by pointing out bugs or probable errors, by contributing improved statistical targets or fragments of code or random number generators to add. I do not include a full list of their names here to protect them from the responsibilities of maintaining the code and their privacy, but I do try to acknowledge them in the actual code source that they’ve most affected.
