Alastair Bridgewater:
He contributed a port of the system to the Windows operating system.

SB-ALIEN.
+Richard M Kreyter:
+ He added documentation support for CLOS slot readers and writers,

+
Frederik Kuivinen:
He showed how to implement the DEBUG-RETURN functionality.
He made a lot of progress toward getting SBCL to be bootstrappable
under CLISP.
+Gabor Melis:
+ He mainly worked on robustness related to signal handling, threads,
+ timers with small excursions to constraint propagation, weak hash
+ tables (based on CMUCL code) and optimizing x86/x86-64 calling
+ convention.

Perry E. Metzger:
He ported SBCL to NetBSD with newer signals, building on the
work of Valtteri Vuorikoski. He also provided various cleanups to
rid of various functionality (e.g. the byte interpreter).

Nikodemus Siivola:
He provided build fixes, in particular to tame the SunOS toolchain,
implemented package locks, ported the linkage-table code from CMUCL,
- reimplemented STEP, and has fixed many (stream-related and other) bugs

Juho Snellman:
He provided a number of bug fixes and performance enhancements to

+Robert Swindells:
+ He ported SBCL to NetBSD/Sparc.
+
Raymond Toy:
He continued to work on CMU CL after the SBCL fork, especially on
floating point stuff. Various patches and fixes of his have been
ported to SBCL, including his Sparc port of linkage-table.
+Larry Valkama:

Peter Van Eynde:
He wrestled the CLISP test suite into a mostly portable test suite
(clocc ansi-test) which can be used on SBCL, provided a slew of
