| <p>Special thanks to </p> |
| <p><b>Dan Nuffer</b> for his work on lexers, parse trees, ASTs, XML parsers, the |
| multi-pass iterator as well as administering Spirit's site, editing, maintaining |
| the CVS and doing the releases plus a zillion of other chores that were almost |
| taken for granted. </p> |
| <p><b>Hartmut Kaiser</b> for his work on the C parser, the work on the C/C++ preprocessor, |
| utility parsers, the original port to Intel 5.0, various work on Phoenix, porting |
| to v1.5, the meta-parsers, the grouping-parsers, extensive testing and painstaking |
| attention to details.</p> |
| <p><b>Martin Wille</b> who improved grammar multi thread safety, contributed the |
| eol_p parser, the dynamic parsers, documentation and for taking an active role |
| in almost every aspect from brainstorming and design to coding. And, as always, helps keep the regression tests for g++ on Linux as green as ever :-). </p> |
| <p><b>Martijn W. Van Der Lee</b> our Web site administrator and for contributing |
| the RFC821 parser<b>.</b></p> |
| <p><b>Giovanni Bajo</b> for last minute tweaks of Spirit 1.8.0 for CodeWarrior |
| 8.3. Actually, I'm ashamed Giovanni was not in this list already. He's done |
| a lot since Spirit 1.5, the first Boost.Spirit release. He's instrumental in |
| the porting of the Spirit iterators stuff to the new Boost Iterators Library |
| (version 2). He also did various bug fixes and wrote some tests here and there. |
| </p> |
| <p><b>Juan Carlos Arevalo-Baeza (JCAB) </b>for his work on the C++ parser, the |
| position iterator, ports to v1.5 and keeping the mailing list discussions alive |
| and kicking.</p> |
| <p><strong>Vaclav Vesely, </strong>lots of stuff, the no_actions directive, various patches fixes, the distinct parsers, the lazy parser, some phoenix tweaks and add-ons (e.g. <tt>new_</tt>). Also, <strong>Stefan Slapeta</strong> and <strong>wife</strong> for editing Vaclav's distinct parser doc. </p> |
| <p><b>Raghavendra Satish </b>for doing the original v1.3 port to VC++ and his |
| work on Phoenix.</p> |
| <p><b>Noah Stein</b> for following up and helping Ragav on the VC++ ports.</p> |
| <p><b>Hakki Dogusan</b>, for his original v1.0 Pascal parser.</p> |
| <p><b>John (EBo) David</b> for his work on the VM and watching over my shoulder |
| as I code giving the impression of distance eXtreme programming.</p> |
| <p><b>Chris Uzdavinis</b> for feeding in comments and valuable suggestions as |
| well as editing the documentation.</p> |
| <p><b>Carsten Stoll</b>, for his work on dynamic parsers.</p> |
| <p><b>Andy Elvey</b> and his conifer parser.</p> |
| <p><b>Bruce Florman</b>, who did the original v1.0 port to VC++.</p> |
| <p><b>Jeff Westfahl </b>for porting the loop parsers to v1.5 and contributing |
| the file iterator.</p> |
| <p><b>Peter Simons</b> for the RFC date parser example and tutorial plus helping |
| out with some nitty gritty details.</p> |
| <p><b>Markus Schöpflin</b> for suggesting the end_p parser and lots of other |
| nifty things and his active presence in the mailing list.</p> |
| <p><b>Doug Gregor</b> for mentoring and his ability to see things that others |
| don't. </p> |
| <p><strong>David Abrahams</strong> for giving me a job that allows me to still |
| work on Spirit, plus countless advice and help on C++ and specifically template |
| metaprogramming.</p> |
| <p><strong>Aleksey Gurtovoy</strong> for his MPL library from which I stole many |
| metaprogramming tricks especially for less conforming compilers such as Borland |
| and VC6/7.</p> |
| <p><strong>Gustavo Guerra</strong> for his last minute review of Spirit and constant |
| feedback, plus patches here and there (e.g. proposing the new dot behavior of |
| the real numerics parsers).</p> |
| <p><strong>Nicola Musatti, Paul Snively, Alisdair Meredith </strong>and<strong> |
| Hugo Duncan </strong> for testing and sending in various patches.</p> |
| <p><strong>Steve Rowe</strong> for his splendid work on the TSTs that will soon |
| be taken into Spirit.</p> |
| <p><strong>Jonathan de Halleux</strong> for his work on actors.</p> |
| <p><strong>Angus Leeming</strong> for last minute editing work on the 1.8.0 release documentation, his work on Phoenix and his active presence in the Spirit mailing list.</p> |
| <p> <strong>Joao Abecasis</strong> for his active presence in the Spirit mailing list, providing user support, participating in the discussions and so on. </p> |
| <p> <strong>Guillaume Melquiond</strong> for a last minute patch to <tt>multi_pass</tt> for 1.8.1. </p> |
| <p> <strong>Peder Holt</strong> for his porting work on Phoenix, Fusion and Spirit to VC6. </p> |
| <p>To my wife <b>Mariel</b> who did the graphics in this document.</p> |
| <p>My, there's a lot in this list! And it's a continuing list. I add people to this list everytime. I hope I did not forget anyone. If I missed<br> |
| someone you know who has helped in any way, please inform me.</p> |
| <p> Special thanks also to people who gave feedback and valuable comments, particularly |
| members of Boost and Spirit mailing lists. This includes all those who participated |
