	A list of people who directly contributed to the code you'll find in 
this package:

Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>
	Who's code I borrowed from when writing the TIA64 support.

Massimiliano Mirra <mmirra@sanniolug.org>
	Contributed the code for the -m feature when using logtool with
	multilog files.
	
	A list of people who helped me by pointing out the errors of my ways, 
and in some cases, providing helpfull suggestions to fix various problems:

Christoph Krempe <ck@ub.fu-berlin.de>
	Who reported the build/install error's on Solaris, and helped me
	more than he knows by trying out the various patches I sent him
	until it all compiled/ran fine.  Christoph also pointed out to me
	the bug in the includefile functionality that I finally got fixed. 

Thomas Hager <thomas@1012surf.net>
	Made some good suggestions on updates to the *.spec file for the RPM
	distribution.

Andreas stling" <andreaso@it.su.se>
	Helped me out by getting it to compile on OpenBSD, and reporting to
	me what was needed to fix the main distribution.

Ying-Chieh Liao <ijliao@csie.nctu.edu.tw>
	Pointed out some rather idiotic mistakes I had made in the Makefile.

Thanh Ma <Thanh.Ma@casi-rusco.com>
	Pointed out some compile problems on SCO UnixWare, and gave my fixes
	a try to verify that they worked.  Also pointed out some needed changes
	for AIX compatibility.

Laurent Jacquot <laurent.jacquot@neurocom.com>
	Sent me a patch to fix the lt_fmtcheck() function to work on the 
	latest RedHat 7.0 release.

Robert Huff <roberthuff@rcn.com>
	Suggested I fix the documentation to note a few things, and (in a
	roundabout way) that I make the ./configure script fix the various
	documentation (manpage, logtool.txt) to contain the propper paths
	to the various config files

Johan Swenker <Johan.Swenker@HetNet.NL>
	E-mailed me a patch for logtail to stop coredumps under certain 
	circumstances.

Magnus F <magnus@mandarin.nu> and
Hans-Peter Gertges <hgertges@provinzial-online.de>
	For helping me track down and fix several Solaris-centric problems
	with the 1.2.x branch.

Mark Turnauckas <markt@infocision.com>
	For suggesting the sound playing options which led to all kinds of 
	neat features which I started introducing in 1.2.8.

	Thanks to folks who contributed in a more general way:

	My ex-boss David Hughes, and my Co-Worker Wes Bateman, for not only 
encouraging my efforts to learn C, but for being two of the best people I've
ever worked for/with, and especially for suffering through my fits of psychotic
yammering over whatever latest neat trick I learned about C on any given day, 
and putting up with me on the other end of the spectrum when I was so lost in 
code that I kept having to ask them to repeat what they just said whilst 
having conversations.  You guys rock!
	
	Also, I would like to thank Mark Bainter; one heck of a cool dude, and
probably the smartest Linux geek I ever met.  He helped me out a lot when I was 
fighting my way through my early days of self taught C programming.

	Arlin Collins, for teaching me enough of the basics of C in a few short
classes to give me the background to understand the manpages when I finally got
around to teaching myself. 
	
	And last, but not least, Special thanks to everyone who's helped me out
with tidbits of knowledge along the way in my journey of learning C.  I picked 
up a lot from the manpages and a few books, but without you guys, I would never
have learned enough to code this thing (simple though it may be) :) I think I 
can get most all of you by including the folks from #linpeople and #c on 
irc.openprojects.net.  Thanks for the advice and help you guys (and gal's too).
