Thanks to:
Rick Welykochy <rick@praxis.com.au>, bugfixes for the original LDPDB.
The KDE Project (http://www.kde.org), for some icons.
The Gnome Project (http://www.gnome.org), and particularly the Gnome
Documentation Project (http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gdp/) for
hosting our Bugzilla database.
For help with the ScrollServer project, which was a precursor of
this one, thanks go to Malcolm Tredinnick <malcolm@commsecure.com.au>
for help while I was learning Python, and to Nik Clayton for help
with XSLT stylesheets.
Special Thanks:
Martin Wheeler, an LDP author, originally suggested a Wiki for the
LDP. While the LDP has not implemented a Wiki, Martin's idea was
the impetus for my creating a Wiki-style editing interface in the
LDPDB. That interface was never very polished or complete, an only
I ever used it. Building it was a royal pain.
I decided the LDPDB architecture was insufficient to the task, but
I recognized the potential a user-contributed documentation database
could have for Linux and all Free Software.
That was when I launched Lampadas, which didn't even have a name at
that time. So, I extend a very special Thank You to Martin for
inspiring all of this.
