Indeed. I'd also like to add a few other missing names.
May I suggest the following?

Looks, great, I'll merge this with my own changes and copy
edit it a bit. I think I'd say "math subsystem" intead of
"math component" because Joseph is the subsystem maintainer
and that's how we talk about it in the wiki.
Cheers,
Carlos.
