Direct mail to my mail account is increasing in volume, and prevents
others from both helping you, and learning from any answers.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
================
I like to thank especially these people for their valuable ideas and
contributions:
Ward Cunningham <ward@c2.com> for inventing WikiWIki in the first
place.
Martin Pool <mbp@humbug.org.au> for providing the base of what now
is MoinMoin.
Marko Schulz <Marko.Schulz@gmx.de> for providing input on the first
versions of MoinMoin as it evolved.
Tom Holroyd <tomh@po.crl.go.jp> provided the set of emoticons that come
with the standard distribution, and came up with the idea to add that
feature.
Richard Jones <richard@bizarsoftware.com.au> who provided so much code
in so little time that I could not keep up with him. He works on company
time, though (unless I'm mistaken). Also found the nasty security hole
in release 0.6.
Christian Bird <chris.bird@lineo.com> provided some nice ideas and some
code.
Peter Thoeny and all other people involved in creating TWikiDrawPlugin;
for copyright information on TWikiDrawPlugin see below; for more
information and a download link to get the source refer to
http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/TWiki/TWikiDrawPlugin
Thomas Waldmann for the major effort of translating all the help and
system pages to German, and increasing volumes of code.
Bernhard Rosenkraenzer and Andrew Bennetts for password login patches.
And all the people I forgot or that are mentioned in the code.
