Michael Lemon helped with the documentation. The work of Falko Poiker and Chris Smith is appreciated. Thanks to Jeff Hupp for maintaining our infrastructure. Thanks to Dave Boynton for the use of his HOSTEDIT program. Thanks to Mike Campbell for the Solaris port and John Spickes for the use of his swampthing. Thanks to Matt Mueller for his work on alternative combat. Thanks to Robert Jackson for his hyperjump formula. Thanks to Joshua Io for his advice. Thanks to Daniel Tryba for helping with the FreeBSD port. Thanks to Robert Dejournett for helping with the BSD/386 port. Thanks to Stefan Glasauer for his many PHost support hooks in . Thanks to Alex Ivlev for his excellent PHost support in VPA. And special thanks to Thomas Voigt for knowing more about this game than anyone else in the Echo Cluster and for freely contributing his knowledge to the project.

Many thanks from the new crew go to Piotr Winiarczyk, Heiko Schlenker, and Thomas Klebes, who help with ideas, code and testing. Special thanks for their eagle-eyes go to Bart Dopheide and Ingo von Borstel. PHost would be quite a bit more inconsistent without them.

In addition, Stefan Reuther wishes to thank Olaf "Falo" Selke for the schnitzelmitkartoffelsalat and the beer :-).

Thanks for the Linux/PPC version go to Thomas Liesner who borrowed me an account on his machine.

Ian Adams gave me an account on his Macintosh for the MacOS X port.

Alexey Veselovsky did the port to BeOS.

Also, many thanks to the people who submitted suggestions for enhancing or improving PHost. Many of the new features that have appeared over time are a direct consequence of your ideas.

"Smilies with multiple right parentheses," he went on, shaking his head, "are a sure sign of a double chin."

Finally but foremost, many thanks to all those who participated in the testing of PHost, both as hosts and as players.
