  10. <para>I'm very gratefull to all the people who helped with the development,
  11. by discussion, fixes, and as users. It was pleasant
  12. to see all that involvement, which made the library much better than it
  13. would be otherwise.

  15. <para>In the early stages, the library was affected by discussions with
  16. Gennadiy Rozental, William Kempf and Alexander Okhotin.

  18. <para>Hartmut Kaiser was the first person to try the library on his project
  19. and send a number of suggestions and fixes.

  22. Droba helped with the option description semantic. Gennadiy Rozental has
  23. criticised many aspects of the library which caused various simplifications.
