San Mehata430b2b2014-09-23 08:30:51 -07001* LibVNCServer (C) 2001 Johannes E. Schindelin <Johannes.Schindelin@gmx.de>
2is based on
3* Original OSXvnc (C) 2001 Dan McGuirk <mcguirk@incompleteness.net>,
4which in turn is based on
5* Original Xvnc (C) 1999 AT&T Laboratories Cambridge.

7Lots of improvements of this library are thanks to
8* TightVNC (C) 2000-2003 Const Kaplinsky

10The ZRLE compression scheme is from
11* RealVNC (James "Wez" Weatherall, who helped also with regions)
12
13The good folks from
14* KRFB (I think it was Tim Jansen)
15helped also a lot (some *big* bugs!).
16
17Karl Runge provides an x11vnc, which is a much, much improved version of my
18original proof-of-concept. It really deserves to replace the old version,
19as it is a state-of-the-art, fast and usable program by now! However, he
20maintains it and improves it still in amazing ways!
21
22The file transfer protocol from TightVNC was implemented by Rohit Kumar.
23This includes an implementation of RFB protocol version 3.7t.

40Probably I forgot quite a few people sending a patch here and there, which
41really made a difference. Without those, some obscure bugs still would
42be unfound.
