I believe we've standardized on given-name-first in these lists. (There was some discussion around that when the first such lists were made, see [1].) People from Far Eastern cultures often write family name first in signatures, so it can be hard to tell whether it ought to be switched or not. I am not sure which of your changes are correct per this rule. In the v13 acknowledgements list, I see Haiying Tang Li Japin Shenhao Wang It could be that that entry for Li is backward, though. regards, tom lane [1] https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/54ad0e42-770e-dfe1-123e-bce= 9361ad452%402ndquadrant.com
