Sorry, no. A software developer is someone designs, writes, or fixes software. There are many other ways to contribute, as you point out. But Roy wasn't a developer on OpenSolaris, and the correction I made stands.

Roy Fielding Posted May 1, 2008 8:22 UTC (Thu) by rahulsundaram (subscriber, #21946) [Link] The article refers to opensolaris developers. From a project perspective, this doesn't confine to just software developers but everybody involved in the project. Package maintainers wouldn't necessarily count as developers possibly by using a strict definition since their primary task isn't designing or writing software but they are widely regarded as such and term is used more loosely. You view point seems different.
