Many people have contributed greatly to ldb. If I were one of
those annoyingly organized people, I would have carefully maintained
a list of them through the years. As it is, I have to try to dredge
up everyone's name from what passes for my memory. If I forgot you,
please don't be insulted; I forget the way to the grocery store, too.
Let me know and I'll add you to the list.
Earle Ake wrote significant pieces of the code, including
the online help and roll/double statistics. He also made
a lot of improvements to the VMS port, and has contributed
numerous patches and suggestions. He also arranged to
get ldb version 1.1 onto the DECUS tape.
Karen Ward was the first user/tester/victim, and has made
countless suggestions over the years. We've played continuously
since 1990, and is the first friend I ever made on the net.

refrained from making too much fun of my original copyright.
