Ethereum is based on a design in an original whitepaper by Vitalik Buterin. This implementation is based on the formal specification of a refinement of that idea detailed in the 'yellow paper' by Gavin Wood. Contributors, builders and testers include:

• arkpar (Arkadiy Paronyan) Mix, PV61/BlockQueue
• debris (Marek Kotewicz) JSONRPC, web3.js
• CJentzsch (Christoph Jentzsch) tests, lots of tests
• LefterisJP (Lefteris Karapetsas) Solidity, libethash
• chriseth (Christian Reitwiessner) Solidity
• subtly (Alex Leverington) libp2p, rlpx
• yann300 (Yann Levreau) Mix
• LianaHus (Liana Husikyan) Solidity
• chfast (Paweł Bylica) EVMJIT
• cubedro (Marian Oancea) web3.js
• gluk256 (Vlad Gluhovsky) Whisper
• programmerTim (Tim Hughes) libethash-cl

And let's not forget: Caktux (neth, ongoing CI), Eric Lombrozo (original MinGW32 cross-compilation), Marko Simovic (original CI).
