+The current developers of Gawk would like to thank and acknowledge the
+many people who have contributed to the development through bug reports
+and fixes and suggestions. Unfortunately, we have not been organized
+enough to keep track of all the names -- for that we apologize.
+
+Another group of people have assisted even more by porting Gawk to new
+platforms and providing a great deal of feedback. They are (for
+2.12):
+
+ Hal Peterson <hrp@pecan.cray.com> (Cray)
+ Pat Rankin <gawk.rankin@EQL.Caltech.Edu> (VMS)
+ Michal Jaegermann <NTOMCZAK@vm.ucs.UAlberta.CA> (Atari, NeXT, DEC 3100)
+ Mike Lijewski <mjlx@eagle.cnsf.cornell.edu> (IBM RS6000)
+
+Last, but far from least, we would like to thank Brian Kernighan who
+has helped to clear up many dark corners of the language and provided a
+restraining touch when we have been overly tempted by "feeping
+creaturism".
+
+Support for MSC 5.1 under MS-DOS was supplied for 2.11 by Kent
+Williams, who can be reached at williams@umaxc.weeg.uiowa.edu. It
+relies heavily on the earlier work done for 2.10 by Conrad Kwok and
+Scott Garfinkle.
