List of "IOS compiled by" names

[Iulian Vaideanu]

Since there's nothing much to do at work the day before Christmas, I got bored and thought about checking some old switches in our network and making a list of IOS compilers, as shown in "show version" outputs .

Besides prod_rel_team and mcpre (also a team name?), so far I got antonino, yenanh, madison, amvarma, nburra, sasyamal, nachen and gereddy.

Any other examples?

Does anybody here know more about these names?

I believe these are all people from the Release Ops team. Pre-release IOS builds by the dev organization have interim build numbers in them. Once a final release candidate is identified, the image gets re-built with the appropriate IOS numbering. I have always assumed that the "compiled by" is the Release Ops person who initiates the rebuild (or maybe the person who wrote the rebuild script years ago).
