Many thanks to (in alphabetical order): Pablo Almeida (pabloalmeidaff9@gmail.com) provides and maintains the Portuguese translation. Harald Bögeholz (hwb@heise.de) provided a lot of insightful discussions on CD/DVD data recovery and Reed-Solomon error correction. The "adaptive read strategy" in dvdisaster is based upon his suggestions and ideas; he had implemented a similar strategy before and published in issue 16/2005 of the german periodical "c't". Julian Einwag (julian@einwag.de). provides and maintains the Mac OS X / Darwin port. Igor Gorbounov (igorbounov@topazelectro.ru) provides and maintains the Russian translation. Andrei Grecu (andrei.grecu@aon.at) provided an algorithm for recovering defective CD sectors from multiple incomplete RAW reading attempts. Phil Karn wrote an excellent library for creating and decoding Reed-Solomon codes. This project draws a lot of inspiration - and even code - from his library which can be found at http://www.ka9q.net/code/fec/ Since the code was optimized and trimmed down for dvdisaster´s special needs, you should get the original thing if you're interested in incorporating RS codes into your application. Daniel Nylander (info@danielnylander.se) provides and maintains the Swedish translation. Andrea Polverini (polve@polve.com) provides and maintains the Italian translation. LuboÅ¡ StanÄk (lubek@users.sourceforge.net) provides and maintains the Czech translation. Sergey Svishchev (svs@ropnet.ru) provided the NetBSD port. A lot of other people provided additional suggestions and bug reports; see the CHANGELOG file for details.
