- Berkeley Yacc owes much to the unflagging efforts of Keith Bostic. His
- badgering kept me working on it long after I was ready to quit.
-
- Berkeley Yacc is based on the excellent algorithm for computing LALR(1)
- lookaheads developed by Tom Pennello and Frank DeRemer. The algorithm is
- described in their almost impenetrable article in TOPLAS 4,4.
-
- Finally, much of the credit for the latest version must go to those who
- pointed out deficiencies of my earlier releases. Among the most prolific
- contributors were
-
- Benson I. Margulies
- Dave Gentzel
- Antoine Verheijen
- Peter S. Housel
- Dale Smith
- Ozan Yigit
- John Campbell
- Bill Sommerfeld
- Paul Hilfinger
- Gary Bridgewater
- Dave Bakken
- Dan Lanciani
- Richard Sargent
- Parag Patel

- NOTE: 1.8 Perl patches are based heavily on 1.6 Perl patches.
- I just integrated the 1.6 patches with Berkeley yacc 1.8 and
- fixed a few bugs.
