Reuben Thomas is not a co-author of the Gentle Introduction, although it
looks like he's had something to do with the HTML rendering of it. John
Peterson would know more about that but I think that he's off-line for
awhile. In any case, the non-HTML versions should all be consistent,
with Hudak/Fasel/Peterson as authors. I really don't know much about
the HTML version, except that it's handy to have on-line :-)
