AUTHORS

Scrapy was brought to life by Shane Evans while hacking a scraping framework
prototype for Mydeco (mydeco.com). It soon became maintained, extended and
improved by Insophia (insophia.com), with the initial sponsorship of Mydeco to
bootstrap the project. In mid-2011, Scrapinghub (now Zyte) became the new
official maintainer.
