Well, I'm not so sure that the organisations are very relevant...

With that, I totally concur. That list is on
http://ocaml.org/about.html as Amir mentioned, however it's clearly
not up to date. :(
I'm not going to update it because I don't know the up-to-date list.
One example comes to mind: David Sheets has been a maintainer for
quite a while now and he's not on the list.

Cheers,
Philippe
