That is no longer the case. I could dig up the ML thread in which it
was discussed, but I'm rather lazy. Can you link to the page that has
that wording so it can be updated?
Maintainer is the person responsible for updating the package,
contributors are as Stefan said, previous maintainers (or people who
have submitted updates)
