+CURL-SECURITY (at haxx dot se)
+
+Who is on this list? There are a couple of criteria you must meet, and then we
+might ask you to join the list or we can ask you to join it. It really isn't
+very formal. We basically only require that you have a long-term presence in
+the curl project and you have shown an understanding for the project and its
+way of working. You must've been around for a good while and you should have
+no plans in vanishing in the near future.
+
+We do not make the list of partipants public mostly because it tends to vary
+somewhat over time and a list somewhere will only risk getting outdated.
