+<ul>
+ <li>Takatoshi Kondo found and corrected a very obscure and difficult bug in the
+ serialization of virtual base classes.
+ <li><a href="http://www.autoform.com">AutoForm Engineering GmbH</a> supported
+ development efforts to extend correct serialization to objects stored in DLLS.
+ <li><a href"http://www.cadence.com/il">Cadence Israel</a> supported enhancement
+ and testing of the portable binary archive.
+ <li>David Abrahams improved implementation of "export" functionality. This not
+ only eliminated an annoying header sequencing requirement, but also the need to maintain
+ a list of "known archives".
+ <li>Mattias Troyer enhanced the implementation of native binary archives. This includes
+ enhancement and generalization of the library itself including generalization of
+ the wrapper concept.
+ <li>Markus Schöpflin tracked down issues with TRU64 compiler resulting in 100% passing.
+ <li><a href="mailto::troy@resophonic.com"> Troy D. Straszheim</a> made the initial version of variant serialization.
+ <li>Tonko Juricic helped refine and complete project files for VC 7.1 ide
+ <li><a href="http://www.boost.org/people/rene_rivera.htm">Rene Rivera</a> tracked down several issues related to
+ Code Warrior, toolset configuration and bjam and much else.
+ <li>Martin Ecker detected (and fixed!) a number of subtle errors regarding cyclic
+ pointers, shared pointers. He also built the library as a DLL and raised some issues
+ <li>Pavel Vozenilek invested much effort in review of code and documentation
+ resulting in many improvements. In addition he helped a lot with porting to other
+ platforms including VC 6.0, Intel, and especially Borland.
+ <li><a href="http://www.boost.org/people/jens_maurer.htm">Jens Maurer</a> and
+ <a href="http://www.boost.org/people/beman_dawes.html">Beman Dawes</a> who got the boost
+ serialization ball rolling. It was one or both of these two that invented
+ the much beloved <code>&</code> syntax used to implement both save and
+ load in one fuction specification.
+ <li><a href="http://www.boost.org/people/vladimir_prus.htm">Vladimir Prus</a> for evaluating an
+ early draft and contributing the diamond inheritance example.
+ <li><a href="http://www.boost.org/people/william_kempf.htm">William E. Kempf</a>
+ who made the templates for this and other boost manuals. This relieved
+ me of much aggravation.
+ <li><a href="mailto:vahan@unicad.am">Vahan Margaryan</a> and
+ <a href="mailto:fredrik_blomqvist-at-home.se">Fredrik Blomqvist</a> for their contributions
+ to my understanding of the subtle issues of exception safety in this context.
+ <li>all other boost members who responded with feedback during the
+ development of this library. Almost all comments resulted in
+ tangible changes in the library which made it much better.
+ <li>boosters who helped out in porting to other platforms:, Fernando Cacciola (Borland),
+ Jeff Flinn (VC 7.1), Vladimir Prus (gcc 3.3), Christoph Ludwig(gcc 3.4),
+ Rob Lievaart(mingw), Marshal Clow(gcc-darwin) among others.
+ <li>all boost members who participated in the first formal review
+ in November 2002. Many of these members invested quite an effort
+ to evaluate the library and suggest changes. They are
+ Matthias Troyer, Pavel Vozenilek, Vladimir Prus, Fredrik Blomqvist,
+ Jeff Garland, Gennadiy Rozental, Alberto Barbati, Dave Harris.
+ Mr. Rozenthal in particular wrote an incredibly insightful analysis
+ that has driven all subsequent development that has resulted in the
+ current package.
+ <li>Dave Harris proposal and spirited defense of it led to a re-thinking
+ of the overrides for serialization of pointers. This resulted in a simpler
+ and more effective method of accounting for non-default constructors
+ required by serialization of pointers and STL collections.
+ <li><a href="mailto:admin@thefireflyproject.us">Bryce Lelbach</a> rewrote the XML Serialization grammar using Boost.Spirit 2.x.
