About box points to misleading contributors page on Github (Trac #912)

[smk78]

The About box says 'A list of individual contributors can be found at: https://github.com/orgs/SasView/people. Although this page exists, the only contributors listed are PDB and AJJ.

Either the Github page needs updating or the text in the About box needs replacing (eg, to point at http://www.sasview.org/contact.html).

Assigning this to PDB for a decision.

Update

AJJ discovered that ALL contributors are only shown IF you are logged into Github.

Reassigning this ticket to AJJ to do some Github furtling.
