I think we should have the $Id: $ tag in all files. If you take 
mapserver.h as the reference, it has it at the top.

With respect to the original question: the credits section of the 
README, I agree that it's out of date and have no objection to seeing it 
removed for now. However I would like to eventually have a way to give 
credit (in some user-accessible place, not just source) to organizations 
who have contributed to MapServer, but I don't know how to do this 
efficiently... it's tough to keep such a list up to date, and to deal 
with small vs large contributions in a fair way, etc. GDAL has 
http://www.gdal.org/credits.html ... I'm not sure how Frank manages to 
keep this up to date and fair though. Maybe he could comment on that?
