    <h2>Anonymous Developers</h2>
    <p>We have several developers who prefer to remain anonymous; their anonymity does not reflect the incredible impact their contributions have made to Namecoin. We are deeply grateful for their work.</p>
    <h1>Former Developers</h1>
    <p>We have several developers who are no longer active in the community, listed below.</p>

Mikhail was a PhD student at Moscow State University. In 2014 Mikhail tragically died of a stroke at the age of 29.
