Developers:
-----------

    TMDA was originally developed by Jason R. Mastaler.  Subsequent
    development towards the 1.0 final release was a group effort; the
    core contributors being Jason R. Mastaler and Tim Legant, with
    contributions from many others (see the 'Contributions' section
    below).  Jason R. Mastaler remains TMDA maintainer.

Acknowledgements:
-----------------

    * Thomas Erskine -- the author of TMS, from which TMDA derived the
      concept of tagged addresses.  TMS served as the impetus for
      developing TMDA.

    * Guido van Rossum -- for creating Python, my language of choice.
      Python allowed me to develop a working version of this software
      in just a couple of weeks.  This could have easily been a
      multi-month project in C/C++, or a shorter project in Perl, with
      working but ugly and unmaintainable results.
    
    * Andrew Archibald -- provided lots of cryptography-related help and
      insight.  Much of the crypto design in TMDA stems from his input.
