General Credits

These credits are from both Indrek Mandre and Richard Dawe.

  • Dan M. Hedlund <hedl0036@tc.umn.edu> http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Peaks/8523/

    His Wsock library is the base of this library.

  • Alfons Hoogervorst <alfons@hoogervorst.demon.nl> http://www.hoogervorst.demon.nl/

    His dsock library helped to get select() and blocking recv() calls work. He also contributed some information on how to obtain Windows machine and DNS IP addresses.

  • The Regdos Group <alfons@hoogervorst.demon.nl> http://www.hoogervorst.demon.nl/

    They contributed the registry-access code that is used to automatically find out some IP settings. Alfons is the maintainer.

Indrek's Credits

  • Linus Torvalds

    Linux is the best OS - much of the code is from it.

  • Richard Dawe <rd5718@bristol.ac.uk> http://irix.bris.ac.uk/~rd5718/

    This man made 99% of the documentation of this library. I can't describe him in words, magnificent guy! You'll get far, Rich. [Rich: Please, you're making me blush! =) ]

  • Heiko Jappe <hej@gis.de>

    He has a very nice habit of finding all the nastiest bugs and reporting them. There would be some very bad "features" in the library without him.

  • Wojtek Galazka <wgalazka@chem.uw.edu.pl>

    He pointed out some bugs and has some great ideas. A man with an open mind.

Rich's Credits

  • Indrek Mandre <indrek@warp.edu.ee> http://www.pld.ttu.ee/~indrek/

    Thanks to Indrek for writing the library in the first place, letting me contribute to it, and then, gulp, trusting me to look after it. This man has a lot faith and trust!

  • Petr Frisch

    Thanks to Petr for finding that libsocket's non-blocking sockets didn't work properly, and for informing me how they should work.

  • Vlad Pambucol

    Thanks to Vlad for noticing that his data was being mangled by libsocket, which lead to me finding an absolutely huge bug!

  • Thanks to everyone else who has shown interest in libsocket, and has mailed me to say they are using it. Please continue to do this!

Indrek's Discredits

  • Bill

    The worst OS I've ever seen, it's slow, it crashes all the time and it looks ugly. [Rich: Well, it only crashes for me when I use Microsoft applications!]

Rich's Discredits

  • Netscape Composer

    The HTML produced by this is dire! It can't handle lists-of-lists. It almost makes me want to use Microsoft FrontPage! On the plus side, Netscape Navigator is still a top browser.
