@chapter Who's behind the project?
@strong{(Please note: This section has not yet been updated for the latest
net release.)}
@strong{(Please note that if you have cygwin-specific questions, all of these
people will appreciate it if you use the cygwin mailing lists rather than
sending personal email.)}
Chris Faylor (cgf@@cygnus.com) is behind many of the recent
changes in Cygwin. Prior to joining Cygnus, he contributed significant
fixes to the process control and environ code, reworked the strace
mechanism, and rewrote the signal-related code from scratch as a Net
contributor. In addition to continuing to make technical contributions,
Chris is also currently the group's manager.

Geoffrey Noer (noer@@cygnus.com) took over the Cygwin project from its'
initial author Steve Chamberlain in mid-1996. As maintainer, he
produced Net releases beta 16 through 20; made the development
snapshots; worked with Net contributors to fix bugs; made many various
code improvements himself; wrote a paper on Cygwin for the
1998 Usenix NT Symposium; authored the project WWW pages, FAQ, README;
etc.
Corinna Vinschen has contributed several useful fixes to the path
handling code, console support, improved security handling, and raw
device support. Corinna is currently employed by Red Hat as a
GDB/Cygwin engineer.
DJ Delorie (dj@@cygnus.com) has done important work in profiling Cygwin,

Cygwin's ability to start a debugger on detection of a fatal error
as well as produce core dumps.
Robert Collins has contributed many improvements to thread handling
as well as generic fixes to cygwin itself.
Kazuhiro Fujieda has contributed many bug fixes and bug reports.

Steve Chamberlain designed and implemented
Cygwin in 1995-1996 while working for Cygnus. He worked with the Net

for the first time to Cygwin, and produced all of the releases up to
beta 14.

Marco Fuykschot (marco@@ddi.nl) and Peter Boncz (boncz@@ddi.nl) of
Data Distilleries contributed nearly all of the changes required to
make Cygwin thread-safe. They also provided the pthreads interface.

Sergey Okhapkin (sos@@prospect.com.ru) has been an invaluable Net
contributor. He implemented the tty/pty support, has played a
significant role in revamping signal and exception handling, and has
made countless contributions throughout the library. He also provided
binaries of the development snapshots to the Net after the beta 19
release.

Mumit Khan (khan@@xraylith.wisc.edu) has been most helpful on the EGCS
end of things, providing quite a large number of stabilizing patches to
the compiler tools for the B20 release.

Many other people at Cygnus have made important contributions to Cygwin.
Tobin Brockett wrote the InstallShield-based installer for the beta 19
and 20 releases. Ian Lance Taylor did a much-needed rework of the path
handling code for beta 18, and has made many assorted fixes throughout
the code. Jeremy Allison made significant contributions in the area of
file handling and process control, and rewrote select from scratch.
Doug Evans rewrote the path-handling code in beta 16, among other
things. Kim Knuttila and Michael Meissner put in many long hours
working on the now-defunct PowerPC port. Jason Molenda and Mark Eichin
have also made important contributions.
