- A number of people have been very helpful in bringing
- the notesfile syste to its current state.
- Rob Kolstad first brought up the idea of implementing notesfiles
- on UNIX.
- Malcolm Slaney and Brian Redman
- both used the program before it was close to being ready and
- offered numerous suggestions and corrections.
- Lou Salkind and Rick Spickelmier
- put much effort into
- generalizing the command parsing and adding
- features I've forgotten to mention.
- Tw Cook first implemented USENET-compatible headers for
- the notesfile/news gateway.
-
- To all of these people, I give my hearty thanks for helping
- to make this system what it is:
- a convenient tool for
- user communications,
- personal notebooks,
- project workbooks,
- and
- discussion management.
