516 contributors this cycle vs 462 last cycle.

When name accents/capitalization differed, I went with the string used in
the previous year.

Some of the names that come from bug reports and doc fixes are just first
names, and the discussion threads shed no light on the full name of the
person.

I have a git log that has been "redacted", which is to say that every name
attribution has been screened out, as well as names of known past
contributors, and various other name-looking things that aren't people (ex.
Microsoft Windows) screened out. Even with all that automation it is still
over 50k lines, so if you want to double check that, make sure you have a
comfy chair.
