Special thanks must go to Eric Muehle, a tireless source of ideas,
advice, and playtesting at Utah; Greg Fisher, who added many good things
to make 5.4; and Robert Forsman, who did a great deal of work for 5.5.
Eric Ziegast and Alan Clegg have been essential to maintaining the old
<I>Xconq</I> mailing list and archives at <CODE>ftp.uu.net</CODE>.

game dialogs, xshowimf, and a number of library modules, as well as many
other fixes and enhancements.
