Since the program is getting more stable by the day, it is time I add a little file to acknowledge people that have helped me along the way. Foremost, Clifford Neuman (bcn@cs.washington.edu) provides us with the prospero protocol. This makes the whole thing possible. He provided all the information I used concerning the prospero protocol. Without his help, this program is impossible. As I wrote the program at the time the protocol was being updated, I thank him for providing me all the information when it came along. He also informed me of a test archie server that I used to eliminate many bugs. I am grateful for all his helps. To the people in quiche.cs.mcgill.ca providing archie, it is certainly hard to imagine the days when archie was not available. To all the people who sent me messages telling me the problems they encountered, telling me that the program worked on their machines, and telling me the program did not work on their machines, I thank you very much. These people are: Gary D. Kline, ssi!gdk@uunet.uu.net Emmett Hogan, hogan@csl.sri.com Karsten Thygesen, karthy@iesd.auc.dk Brendan Kehoe, brendan@cs.widener.edu Peter Mutsaiers, muts@fysak.fys.ruu.nl Kean Stump, kean@ucs.orst.edu # thanks for providing a Makefile Peter Orbaek, poe@daimi.aau.dk # thanks for making it more perl'ish Billy Barron, billy@sol.acs.unt.edu I may have missed one or two people. To them, I am sorry. I know the program is rather trivial and not even useful for many people. But I wrote in the hope that it might be useful for a few people. I posted it in the Usenet spirit of sharing. Khun Yee
