Acknowledgments

Together the authors would like to thank the many great people who brought this book together.

Thank you to all the reviewers who took time out of their busy schedules to read our manuscript in different stages during its development. Your feedback was invaluable. Thanks to John C. Tyler, Robi Sen, Randy Miller, Andrew Siemer, Tariq Ahmed, Bernard Farrell, Bruno Lowagie, Carlo Bottiglieri, Paul King, Mike Tian-Jian Jiang, Federico Tomassetti, Robert Dempsey, Patrick Debois, Doug Warren, Horaci Mcias, Daniel Alford, Amr Elssamadisy, Dave Corun, Bas Vodde, Vincent Yin, Valentin Crettaz, Marco Ughetti, Darren Neimke, Hannu Terävä, Eric Raymond, Jason Kolter, Christopher Haupt, Robert Hanson, Dusty Jewett, and Christian Siegers.

We had a first-class review team for this book. Craig Smith provided solid technical proofreading and helped us enrich the content for different perspectives. Nermina Miller was the main editor and provided great guidance for connecting with the reader. You are the best, Nermina!

The final edit team also put the book through several reviews to improve continuity, wording, grammar, and flow. Tiffany Taylor, Linda Recktenwald, and Katie Tennant may need a vacation after correcting all of our typos. Director of Production, Mary Piergies, did an excellent job of coordinating all of our work and getting the book into print.
