__NOTOC__
The following are short biographies of the people responsible for creating, maintaining, and developing MusicBrainz, as well as certain members of the community worthy of honorable mention.

There are developers who write the software for the web site and client applications, system administrators who keep the servers running, style editors who edit the style guidelines, and last—but definitely not least—all the users who add to and improve the accuracy of the data itself, and it is their combined efforts that have helped make MusicBrainz into what it is today.
