-The design and implementation of the first 10 versions of X
-were primarily the work of three individuals: Robert Scheifler of the
-MIT Laboratory for Computer Science and Jim Gettys of Digital
-Equipment Corporation and Ron Newman of MIT, both at MIT
-Project Athena.
-X version 11, however, is the result of the efforts of
-dozens of individuals at almost as many locations and organizations.
-At the risk of offending some of the players by exclusion,
-we would like to acknowledge some of the people who deserve special credit
-and recognition for their work on Xlib.
-Our apologies to anyone inadvertently overlooked.

-Our thanks does to Ron Newman (MIT Project Athena),
-who contributed substantially to the
-design and implementation of the Version 11 Xlib interface.
-</para>
-<para>
-Our thanks also goes to Ralph Swick (Project Athena and Digital) who kept
-it all together for us during the early releases.
-He handled literally thousands of requests from people everywhere
-and saved the sanity of at least one of us.
-His calm good cheer was a foundation on which we could build.
-</para>
-<para>
-Our thanks also goes to Todd Brunhoff (Tektronix) who was ``loaned''
-to Project Athena at exactly the right moment to provide very capable
-and much-needed assistance during the alpha and beta releases.
-He was responsible for the successful integration of sources
-from multiple sites;
-we would not have had a release without him.
-</para>
-<para>
-Our thanks also goes to Al Mento and Al Wojtas of Digital's ULTRIX
-Documentation Group.
-With good humor and cheer,
-they took a rough draft and made it an infinitely better and more useful
-document.
-The work they have done will help many everywhere.
-We also would like to thank Hal Murray (Digital SRC) and
-Peter George (Digital VMS) who contributed much
-by proofreading the early drafts of this document.
-</para>
-<para>
-Our thanks also goes to Jeff Dike (Digital UEG), Tom Benson,
-Jackie Granfield, and Vince Orgovan (Digital VMS) who helped with the
-library utilities implementation;
-to Hania Gajewska (Digital UEG-WSL) who,
-along with Ellis Cohen (CMU and Siemens),
-was instrumental in the semantic design of the window manager properties;
-and to Dave Rosenthal (Sun Microsystems) who also contributed to the protocol
-and provided the sample generic color frame buffer device-dependent code.
-</para>
-<para>
-The alpha and beta test participants deserve special recognition and thanks
-as well.
-It is significant
-that the bug reports (and many fixes) during alpha and beta test came almost
-exclusively from just a few of the alpha testers, mostly hardware vendors
-working on product implementations of X.
-The continued public
-contribution of vendors and universities is certainly to the benefit
-of the entire X community.
-</para>
-<para>
-Our special thanks must go to Sam Fuller, Vice-President of Corporate
-Research at Digital, who has remained committed to the widest public
-availability of X and who made it possible to greatly supplement MIT's
-resources with the Digital staff in order to make version 11 a reality.
-Many of the people mentioned here are part of the Western
-Software Laboratory (Digital UEG-WSL) of the ULTRIX Engineering group
-and work for Smokey Wallace, who has been vital to the project's success.
-Others not mentioned here worked on the toolkit and are acknowledged
-in the X Toolkit documentation.
-</para>
-<para>
-Of course,
-we must particularly thank Paul Asente, formerly of Stanford University
-and now of Digital UEG-WSL, who wrote W, the predecessor to X,
-and Brian Reid, formerly of Stanford University and now of Digital WRL,
-who had much to do with W's design.
