Since then many people have contributed patches. 6 7This file lists the ones who contributed major code changes, in no 8particular order, and I thank them all. This is of course not to diminish 9the smaller contributes of the many others. Thank you all. 10 11* Erez Zadok <ezk@cs.columbia.edu> 12 13The most significant changes were made by Erez Zadok in terms of bug fixes, 14ports, and new features added. Erez Zadok is the current maintainer of 15am-utils, as of January 1997. 16 17There is a mailing list dedicated to developers of am-utils. To subscribe 18to it, send mail to majordomo@majordomo.cs.columbia.edu, with the body of 19the message having the single line "subscribe amd-dev". 20 21* Randall S.
