<p>Very special thanks go to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Aleksey Gurtovoy, the developer of the ingenious meta programming
library (boost::mpl). The interface as well as the implementation of
Boost.Statechart hugely benefit from Alekseys work. I would have given up
long ago without mpl. Moreover, Aleksey's double dispatch implementation
in <a href="http://www.mywikinet.com/mpl/fsm_example_25_jul_02.zip">his
FSM framework</a> gave me fresh ideas after I had come to the conclusion
that my <code>dynamic_cast</code>-based solution was too bad</li>
</ul>
<p>Special thanks go to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Mitsuo Fukasawa, who is the first person using Boost.Statechart in a
real-world project. He gave invaluable feedback, convinced me to make
history a top priority, translated the tutorial to Japanese and tested
new releases on Linux</li>
<li>Peter Petrov, who contributed various standard conformance fixes,
commented on early redesigns of the
<code>asynchronous_state_machine</code> and <code>fifo_scheduler</code>
class templates and reviewed the documentation</li>
<li>Peter Dimov and Douglas Gregor for developing other libraries
(<code>bind</code>, <code>intrusive_ptr</code>,
<code>atomic_count</code>, <code>function</code>) Boost.Statechart is
building on</li>
<li>Pavel Vozenilek for making many suggestions on how to improve code
& documentation, providing Intel 7.0 workarounds and managing the
review</li>
<li>the countless folks who worked and are still working on the boost
infrastructure (config, regression tests, build, html templates, etc).
Writing Boost.Statechart would have been much less fun without this
foundation</li>
<li>David Abrahams and Darryl Green for being persistent enough to
convince me that the exit action to state destructor mapping is sometimes
not a good idea</li>
<li>Paul A Bristow, Keith Burton, Jeff Garland, Simon Gittins, Dave
Gomboc, Darryl Green, Jody Hagins, Iain K. Hanson, David B. Held, Mick
Hollins, Alexander Nasonov, Peter Petrov, Augustus Saunders, John
Spalding, Rob Steward, Jonathan Turkanis and Matthew Vogt for
participating in the review</li>
<li>Joaquín M López Muñoz for his broken allocator
workaround in boost/detail/allocator_utilities.hpp</li>
<li>Igor R for uncovering and reporting several bugs</li>
</ul>
<p>Thanks for feedback and/or encouragement go to:</p>
