 Of course, we must particularly thank Paul Asente, formerly of Stanford University and now of Digital UEG-WSL, who wrote W, the predecessor to X, and Brian Reid, formerly of Stanford University and now of Digital WRL, who had much to do with W's design. Finally, our thanks goes to MIT, Digital Equipment Corporation, and IBM for providing the environment where it could happen.

Release 4

Our thanks go to Jim Fulton (MIT X Consortium) for designing and specifying the new Xlib functions for Inter-Client Communication Conventions (ICCCM) support.

We also thank Al Mento of Digital for his continued effort in maintaining this document and Jim Fulton and Donna Converse (MIT X Consortium) for their much-appreciated efforts in reviewing the changes.

Release 5

The principal authors of the Input Method facilities are Vania Joloboff (Open Software Foundation) and Bill McMahon (Hewlett-Packard). The principal author of the rest of the internationalization facilities is Glenn Widener (Tektronix). Our thanks to them for keeping their sense of humor through a long and sometimes dificult design process. Although the words and much of the design are due to them, many others have contributed substantially to the design and implementation. Tom McFarland (HP) and Frank Rojas (IBM) deserve particular recognition for their contributions. Other contributors were: Tim Anderson (Motorola), Alka Badshah (OSF), Gabe Beged-Dov (HP), Chih-Chung Ko (III), Vera Cheng (III), Michael Collins (Digital), Walt Daniels (IBM), Noritoshi Demizu (OMRON), Keisuke Fukui (Fujitsu), Hitoshoi Fukumoto (Nihon Sun), Tim Greenwood (Digital), John Harvey (IBM), Hideki Hiura (Sun), Fred Horman (AT&T), Norikazu Kaiya (Fujitsu), Yuji Kamata (IBM), Yutaka Kataoka (Waseda University), Ranee Khubchandani (Sun), Akira Kon (NEC), Hiroshi Kuribayashi (OMRON), Teruhiko Kurosaka (Sun), Seiji Kuwari (OMRON), Sandra Martin (OSF), Narita Masahiko (Fujitsu), Masato Morisaki (NTT), Nelson Ng (Sun), Takashi Nishimura (NTT America), Makato Nishino (IBM), Akira Ohsone (Nihon Sun), Chris Peterson (MIT), Sam Shteingart (AT&T), Manish Sheth (AT&T), Muneiyoshi Suzuki (NTT), Cori Mehring (Digital), Shoji Sugiyama (IBM), and Eiji Tosa (IBM).

We are deeply indebted to Tatsuya Kato (NTT), Hiroshi Kuribayashi (OMRON), Seiji Kuwari (OMRON), Muneiyoshi Suzuki (NTT), and Li Yuhong (OMRON) for producing one of the first complete sample implementation of the internationalization facilities, and Hiromu Inukai (Nihon Sun), Takashi Fujiwara (Fujitsu), Hideki Hiura (Sun), Yasuhiro Kawai (Oki Technosystems Laboratory), Kazunori Nishihara (Fuji Xerox), Masaki Takeuchi (Sony), Katsuhisa Yano (Toshiba), Makoto Wakamatsu (Sony Corporation) for producing the another complete sample implementation of the internationalization facilities.

The principal authors (design and implementation) of the Xcms color management facilities are Al Tabayoyon (Tektronix) and Chuck Adams (Tektronix). Joann Taylor (Tektronix), Bob Toole (Tektronix), and Keith Packard (MIT X Consortium) also contributed significantly to the design. Others who contributed are: Harold Boll (Kodak), Ken Bronstein (HP), Nancy Cam (SGI), Donna Converse (MIT X Consortium), Elias Israel (ISC), Deron Johnson (Sun), Jim King (Adobe), Ricardo Motta (HP), Chuck Peek (IBM), Wil Plouffe (IBM), Dave Sternlicht (MIT X Consortium), Kumar Talluri (AT&T), and Richard Verberg (IBM).

We also once again thank Al Mento of Digital for his work in formatting and reformatting text for this manual, and for producing man pages. Thanks also to Clive Feather (IXI) for proof-reading and finding a number of small errors.
