Who are the primary developers of Bitcoin and what is the most efficient way to track the progress of this and similar activities?

I'm interested in reading either a detailed activity view, or a high level bullet point of key developments. Ideally someone would offer both information formats as an answer.


A nice summary view would include the following ideas and a status on testnet and on the production network:

The core developers are listed on the main Bitcoin page, while everyone that contributed code are listed on the About page. Probably the most up-to-date info on what is happening with the code would be on the GitHub repo.

The progress is being tracked through the "Bitcoin Improvement Proposal". There is a grid of several new features that may or may not make it into a future version of the client.
