9 years ago I've moved this to the about page, and reduced it as above. Discuss here if you think other institutions need to be added to the list. Probably a conversation for an editorial board call.

9 years ago Although a relative newcomer, I think this makes sense. I think we should generously value in-kind contributions, however, including if people receive leave from duties etc. to do this sort of work. But if it's just a place where one of us happens to work, it shouldn't be there (i.e. UW shouldn't appear).

9 years ago to be a bit more specific: CHNM provided hosting space initially when were on wordpress, and of course was essential early on. they don't provide server space anymore--github hosts everything--but they do renew our domain name for us, which i think they initially set up--which is pretty important. so we need to keep them in the credits, but might want to revise their contribution to be something more like a generic hosting support.

Current text reads:
Programming Historian remains grateful to the Network in Canadian History & Environment (NiCHE), ScholarsLab at the University of Virginia, The Center for Digital Humanities at UCLA, as well as to the Roy Rozensweig Centre for History & New Media (CHNM) for generous hosting services and technical support.
Is this representative? NiCHE and CHNM both contributed money or in kind contributions of the sort that one could account for. The other two really just supplied bodies on the original project team, so this seems arbitrary now. Should we limit this to tangible contributions of cash or kind rather than just a list of institutions where the project team happen to work? I believe that would take us down to NiCHE as a historic contributor, and CHNM as a current in-kind supplier of our server space and domain name. Yes?
