Also, you might want to update Wikipedia with this information!

Since you have a conflict of interest, as a Replicant developer, it's probably
best that you suggest the change in the discussion page.

>  			<p>Replicant was founded in 2010 as a way to gather
> initiatives aiming to free the system running on the HTC Dream, the first
> publicly-available Android device. The project was started by members of <a
> href="//libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:LibrePlanet_Italia">LibrePlanet Italia</a>
> and <a href="//sfconservancy.org/">Software Freedom Conservancy</a>. The first
> usable version of Replicant was based upon Android 1.5 as released by the <a
> href="//source.android.com/">Android Open Source Project</a>: after some work,
> basic functionalities of the HTC Dream  were working. Starting from version
> 2.2, Replicant stopped using AOSP as a base and instead started using <a
> href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanogenmod">CyanogenMod</a>;, which
> contains support for more devices.</p>
> -			<p>Over time, various initial members of the project
> retired, leaving Denis "GNUtoo" Carikli as the only active developer of the
> project. However, in April 2011 Paul Kocialkowski, a user of Replicant,
> started getting involved in development. After porting Replicant to version
> 2.3 on the Nexus S and later on porting plenty more devices, Paul became the
> main developer of Replicant and is currently doing most of the work on the
> project.</p>
