It really deserves to replace the old version, +as it is a state-of-the-art, fast and usable program by now! + +Occasional important patches were sent by (in order I found the names in my +archives and please don't beat me, if I forgot you, but just send me an +email!): Akira Hatakeyama, Karl J. Runge, Justin "Zippy" Dearing, +Oliver Mihatsch, Greg Sternberg, Werner Hofer, Giampiero Giancipoli, +Glenn Mabutt, Paul Kreiner. + +Probably I forgot quite a few people sending a patch here and there, which +really made a difference. Without those, some obscure bugs still would +be unfound. + +A hearty unthanks goes to Michael and Erick, who provided me with nothing +but hollow words. Finally I got that configure and install working, but +it would have been so much better for them not just to complain, but also +help. As you showed me real egoism, you are the main reasons I am not +working one dot to make this library less than GPL, so that nobody ever +can make profit of my and others work without giving something back to me +and others. + +Speaking of hollow words, another hearty unthanks goes to Sam, who thought +he could let me work for him, not paying me in any way. diff --git a/CHANGES b/CHANGES deleted file mode 100644 index 7952bef..0000000 --- a/CHANGES +++ /dev/null @@ -1,87 +0,0 @@ - moved appropriate files to contrib/ and examples/ respectively - fixed long standing cargs bug - Even better x11vnc from Karl J.
