<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Inspired by <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font>'s
owner, Mark Gorton, the <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> project is a
collaborative <a href="http://www.limewire.org/">open source effort</a>
involving programmers and researchers from all over the world. The collaborative
nature of Gnutella is also reflected in the Gnutella Developers Forum (GDF), of
which <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> is a participant. The members of the
GDF work in the trenches every day to make Gnutella a truly innovative
collection of protocols that is constantly improving -- a testament to the power
of open protocols and open standards.</font></p>
<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif"><font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> is
also, of course, the result of the countless hours of work by the <font
color="#008000">LimeWire</font> developers. These include the following:</font></p>
<ul>
 <li><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Zlatin Balevsky</font></li>
 <li><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Sam Berlin</font></li>
 <li><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Greg Bildson</font></li>
 <li><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Dave Nicponski</font></li>
 <li><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Justin Schmidt</font></li>
</ul>
<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif">The <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> <a
href="http://www.limewire.com/">web site</a> and 
<font color="#008000">LimeWire</font>'s
graphics are the hard work of Senior Designer Aubrey Arago.  Aubrey also designed
the <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> themes.</p>

<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Behind the scenes business developments and day to day affairs are handled
by Meghan Formel and Katie Catillaz.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif">Zenzele Bell dutifully answers all <font color="#008000">LimeWire
PRO</font> support questions.</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif">In addition, the following developers have
worked on the <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> team in the past, but have
since moved on to other projects:</font></p>

<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif"><font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> open

<p><font size="3" face="sans-serif"><font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> would also
like to thank the many contributors to the internationalization project, both for
the application itself and for the <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> web site.

would like to thank the <font color="#008000">LimeWire</font> users, without
