+ First, many thanks to the great group of developers who dove in right
+ from the beginning and have contributed the code and ideas to make
+ &SCons; a success: Chad Austin, Charles Crain, Steve Leblanc, and
+ Anthony Roach. Thanks also to those on the scons-devel mailing list
+ who have contributed greatly to the discussion, notably including
+ David Abrahams, Trent Mick, and Steven Shaw.

+ &SCons; would not exist today without the pioneering work of Bob
+ Sidebotham on the original &Cons; tool, and without Greg Wilson's
+ having started the Software Carpentry contest.

+
+ Thanks also to Peter Miller for: Aegis; the testing discipline that it
+ enforces, without which creating a stable but flexible tool would be
+ impossible; the "Recursive Make Considered Harmful" paper which led me
+ to experiment with &Cons; in the first place.
