1I want to thank everybody who helped to develop and improve slrn by 2sending in code, bugreports or leading productive discussions. The 3list of contributors is far too long to be kept in this file; please 4see changes.txt for those who contributed patches. 5 6I am particularly grateful to the earliest users and contributers to 7software. The earliest contributers to slrn include: 8 9 Michael Elkins 10 Matthias Friedrich 11 David Gerard 12 Howard Goldstein 13 Andrew Greer 14 Sven Guckes 15 Jan Hlavacek 16 Jay Maynard 17 J.B. Nicholson-Owens 18 Mark Olesen 19 Felix Schueller 20 Thomas Schultz 21 Lloyd Zusman 22 23In 2001 I no longer found time to continue slrn development. Thomas 24Schultz agreed to take over the job as the lead slrn developer and 25continued in that role until 2008. For this reason he deserves 26special recognition. 27 28In 2008 I returned as the lead slrn developer. I was helped by an 29enthusiastic group of folks who took it upon themselves to bring the 30documentation up to date: 31 32 Peter J Ross 33 Rudy Taraschi 34 Thomas Wiegner 35 36Finally, I would like to thank Andrew Strong for his support of slrn 37under Windows. 38
