AUTHORS revision 119679
1PRIMARY AUTHORS AND MAJOR CONTRIBUTORS TO AM_UTILS: 2Original authors of amd were the Berkeley team and especially Jan-Simon 3Pendry. Since then many people have contributed patches. 4 5This file lists the ones who contributed major code changes, in no 6particular order, and I thank them all. This is of course not to diminish 7the smaller contributes of the many others. Thank you all. 8 9* Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu> 10 11The most significant changes were made by Erez Zadok in terms of bug fixes, 12ports, and new features added. Erez Zadok is the current maintainer of 13am-utils, as of January 1997. 14 15There is a mailing list dedicated to developers of am-utils. To subscribe 16to it, send mail to majordomo@majordomo.cs.columbia.edu, with the body of 17the message having the single line "subscribe amd-dev". 18 19* Randall S.
