Daniel M. Albro:
  A bunch of bug fixes and improvments.
David McFadzean:
  several bug fixes
Michael McLean:
  update to netUpdate to fix usage of select to work on win32
Dirk Holtwick: 
  configparser code.
Joshua Macy:
  brought moop onto sourceforge and made some major improvments to the code.
  his thanks (and mine) go to: 
Chris Knight:
  of AccesSoft, for taking over when Joe Strout had to move on,
  and providing MOOP with its pre-SourceForge home.

  I can't do justice to all of the kind alpha and beta testers, Python fans,
  and random well-wishers who have contributed to the successful development
  of MOOP. But decency demands that I give it a try. So here are a few of
  the folks who have been most instrumental in shaping MOOP, in no 
  particular order... 

Joe Strout:
  the initial developer and general genius behind MOOP's development.
  His thanks (that I echo) go to:
Guido van Rossum:
  thanks for creating Python, the world's best programming language;
  and for your help and support in the uncertain days of the alpha test.
Amit Patel: 
  thanks for the msg.py module, which has become one of the pillars of 
  MOOP, and also for much help and guidance during the alpha phase.
Andrew Kuchling: 
  you helped me with regexp's which are central to MOOP, and also 
  generously
  hosted the MOOP list archive during the alpha test -- thanks!
Zack Roadhouse: 
  thanks for being the first to give MOOP a public home, on your very own
  machine, Althor.
Jeff Epler: 
  you've kept me on my toes since the early days of the beta test, demanding 
  improvements and often providing them yourself! You've now written more of 
  the current MOOP code than anyone except me and possibly Amit Patel. Thanks
  a million!
Christian Tismer: 
  thanks for providing a home for the MOOP beta test and onward into the
  future on Starship!
Jake Edge: 
  thanks for being especially diligent and resourceful in testing custom 
  editors, a powerful (and previously buggy!) feature of MOOP.
everyone else:
  I also extend heartfelt gratitude to all the alpha- and beta-testers for 
  their patience, helpful bug reports, and enthusiasm which has kept MOOP
  alive.
