Many people have helped make Report Magic what it is today. Thanks go out to all those listed below (in some strange order), not to mention the many people (too many to list) who provided bug reports, suggestions and general encouragement. And many thanks to all the people who have helped to make Perl and the freely-available Perl modules.
If it weren't for Analog, Report Magic for Analog would be pretty useless. Many thanks to Stephen Turner for developing, supporting and maintaining Analog. It's far and away the best website logfile analysis software out there.
Corey and the folks and DNS originally developed what grew into Report Magic. They deserve lots of credit for design and descriptions that have made Report Magic so useful.
Jason helps build the Mac port and has done all the Mac testing. He is also in charge of building the Mac Binary package. His Mac experience and log analysis work at summary.net have been invaluable.
Martien wrote the GD::Graph module used as the basis for the graphs. As the graphs are an important part of Report Magic, he deserves a lot of credit for helping to make this a great tool.
Massimo does the Italian translations and did them amazingly well. He has also been a great editor and has probably done as much for the readability (and spelling!) in the English version as he has for the Italian.
Martin helped get Report Magic working on VMS. The VMSPerl libraries are, apparently, fairly sketchy, and he was able to track down all the patches and updates needed to make sure Report Magic properly worked on the VMS file system. Martin also does all the German language translations and has been helpful in providing lots of bug fixes and optimizations.
Lincoln Stein wrote the root graphics interface to Thomas Boutell's GIF graphics library that is used by both graph systems. Thanks so much to them for providing such a powerful and easy to use graphics creation tool.
weinboehlaWEB has graciously provided hosting of the Report Magic German Mirror site. This provides significant speed improvement for European users. Thanks, Ronny.
Many thanks go out to the translators and testers. The translators have been instrumental in making Report Magic accessible to local users in other countries. The testers (and many users, too) have provided valuable feedback on features, bugs and general functionality.
