Very interesting.  Would there be any interest in adding information
like this to the README file?  I work in a large company with
engineers from around the globe and could poll them to find other
sources.  I would be happy to collect information from them and others
here on official sources to add to the README or maybe a SOURCES file
or something of that nature.

As kre and ado both pointed out, someone newer with less experience
will eventually need to take over. Documenting information like this
would be helpful to someone who wants to do that.
