3 First, many thanks to the great group of developers who dove in right
4 from the beginning and have contributed the code and ideas to make
5 &SCons; a success: Chad Austin, Charles Crain, Steve Leblanc, and
6 Anthony Roach. Thanks also to those on the scons-devel mailing list
7 who have contributed greatly to the discussion, notably including
8 David Abrahams, Trent Mick, and Steven Shaw.
14 &SCons; would not exist today without the pioneering work of Bob
15 Sidebotham on the original &Cons; tool, and without Greg Wilson's
16 having started the Software Carpentry contest.
22 Thanks also to Peter Miller for: Aegis; the testing discipline that it
23 enforces, without which creating a stable but flexible tool would be
24 impossible; the "Recursive Make Considered Harmful" paper which led me
25 to experiment with &Cons; in the first place.
