• To the FSF for adopting the project.
• To the many authors of Ispell (including R. E. Gorin, Pace Willisson, and Geoff Kuenning) for providing me with a good word list as well as giving me a few good ideas.
• Alan Beale for going well beyond the call of duty with helping me create a better word list.
• Lawrence Philips for coming up with the original metaphone algorithm and Michael Kuhn for writing C code for the algorithm.
• Björn Jacke for coming up with a generic soundslike algorithm which gets all of its data from a file, thus eliminating almost all need for language specific code from aspell.
• To the authors of SGI STL version 3.0 and up for proving a great set of generic container classes with cut the development time of this program in half at least.
• To the LyX development team for giving me a great tool for the development of this manual.
