I have some people who want to interview me, and I know I'll be asked about ruby-doc.org. There seem to be at least a few people who misunderstand what I contribute to the documentation process, and I want to be sure that all the people doing the hard stuff get recognized.

I also think a credits page on ruby-doc.org would be nice.

I know that the bulk of the Ruby API docs was written by Dave Thomas, but I don't want to be guessing about the current state.

I believe that Ryan Davis and Eric Hodel are now the owners of the rdoc/ri code.

Correct.

Who are the folks writing docs? And who else deserves credit for one thing or another related to ruby-doc.org or the doc process? (Aside from authors of standalone content on the site; the names are attached to the items, unlike most rdoc stuff.)

When checking in documentation I add names to the ChangeLog of the submitter.
