The versions 0.5 and 0.6 have been developed by Daniel Polansky. The credit for version 0.6.5 goes mainly to Petr Novak of Brno, with smaller contribution of Daniel Polansky. The credit for version 0.6.7 goes mainly to Dimitri Polivaev and Christian Foltin, with smaller contribution of Daniel Polansky. The credit for version 0.7.0 goes mainly to Christian Foltin, with smaller contribution from Bob Alexander, Alex Dukal, Andrew Iggleden, Takeshi Kakeda, Dimitri Polivaev, Daniel Polansky, Knud Riishøjgård and others.
