enemies, to be evenhanded) have been unfairly omitted from this list, we would like
to add your names!
So that they may not regard their many labors as thankless, we particularly thank those
who shepherded GDB through major releases: Andrew Cagney (release 5.0); Jim Blandy
(release 4.18); Jason Molenda (release 4.17); Stan Shebs (release 4.14); Fred Fish (releases
4.16, 4.15, 4.13, 4.12, 4.11, 4.10, and 4.9); Stu Grossman and John Gilmore (releases 4.8,
4.7, 4.6, 4.5, and 4.4); John Gilmore (releases 4.3, 4.2, 4.1, 4.0, and 3.9); Jim Kingdon
(releases 3.5, 3.4, and 3.3); and Randy Smith (releases 3.2, 3.1, and 3.0).
Richard Stallman, assisted at various times by Peter TerMaat, Chris Hanson, and Richard
Mlynarik, handled releases through 2.8.
Michael Tiemann is the author of most of the GNU C++ support in GDB, with significant
additional contributions from Per Bothner. James Clark wrote the GNU C++ demangler.
Early work on C++ was by Peter TerMaat (who also did much general update work
leading to release 3.0).
GDB 4 uses the BFD subroutine library to examine multiple object-file formats; BFD
was a joint project of David V. Henkel-Wallace, Rich Pixley, Steve Chamberlain, and
John Gilmore.
David Johnson wrote the original COFF support; Pace Willison did the original support
for encapsulated COFF.
Brent Benson of Harris Computer Systems contributed DWARF 2 support.
Adam de Boor and Bradley Davis contributed the ISI Optimum V support. Per Bothner,
Noboyuki Hikichi, and Alessandro Forin contributed MIPS support. Jean-Daniel Fekete
contributed Sun 386i support. Chris Hanson improved the HP 9000 support. Noboyuki
Hikichi and Tomoyuki Hasei contributed Sony/News OS 3 support. David Johnson
contributed Encore Umax support. Jyrki Kuoppala contributed Altos 3068 support. Jeff
