PostNuke Credits ================ PostNuke is, as with many successful open-source products, a huge collaborative effort spanning many diverse talents from across the globe. The list below gives an idea of some of the people that have helped in PostNuke was originally a fork of PHPNuke by Francisco Burzi, and many of the concepts in that program survive even though the code does not. We (and PHPNuke, of course) were also influenced by earlier products such as slash and thatware, and I'm sure that we could trace the lineage back to the earliest weblog if we wanted to. Open source at work is taking the best ideas floating around the web and building a product out of them, and that's where we hope that PostNuke is heading. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Jim McDonald Based in the United Kingdom, is responsible for bits of the core and modules architecture, and various security features that seem to cause more trouble than they're worth. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Greg Allan (adam_baum) One of them there Canadian boys :) General layabout/drifter within the PN development framework.
