 ===============================
 
-GHC in its current form wouldn't exist without the hard work of

-efforts and research of many institutions, highly talented people, and
-groups from around the world. We'd like to thank them all, and invite

+GHC is a community project developed by a team of highly-talented
+ researchers, individual contributors, and full-time developers. We are indebted to the
+[many people](https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc-hq/-/blob/main/team.mkd?plain=0#user-content-the-ghc-team)
+whose work has brought GHC to its current state.
+
+Some larger decisions are made by a smaller group of core contributors,
+as described in our [governance documentation](https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc-hq#ghc-governance).
