acknowledgments

As a trio of writers, we’d like to thank the Manning team, especially Doug Rudder, our development editor, as well as the entire production staff who helped shepherd this book into its final format. Another special thank-you goes to our technical editor, Egon Elbre, a principal engineer at Storj Labs. Both Doug and Egon especially helped guide our journey while writing this book.
