+The following developers contributed code to version 0.10:
+
+Nick Knight
+ - ported Box Backup to Windows (properly, not using Cygwin)
+
+Gary Niemcewicz
+ - added client/server (SSL) keepalives to keep the connection to the
+ server alive during a long diff, and saving the daemon's state across restarts
+
+Martin Ebourne
+ - ported to Solaris; wrote extended attribute support (xattr);
+ converted to use autoconf for automatic compiler configuration.
+
+Chris Wilson
+ - updated Nick's and Gary's work to fit in with the new trunk,
+ fixed some issues pointed out by Ben and Martin, made it compile
+ on Windows with the free MinGW compiler.
+
+Jonathan Morton
+ - vastly improved the performance and efficiency of the file-diffing code, and
+ obtained a free G5 PowerMac from IBM as his reward.
+
