I have spent 1-2 hours on this now and updated the right file:
https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/contributors_extra.csv

to also reflect the last 5 years of contributions from people without

This list of contributors should be considered by the CRO as part of
the voting group.

Please let us know if a name is still missing there.
