| 1 | The GNU gettext package is the first full featured package |
|---|
| 2 | directed to NLS support in the GNU packages. It has its roots in the |
|---|
| 3 | GNU C Library development and of course the (never officially |
|---|
| 4 | released) GNU locale package, mostly written by Jim Meyering. |
|---|
| 5 | Therefore a lot of people participated in the process of creating this |
|---|
| 6 | software. |

| 9 | Ulrich Drepper drepper@ipd.info.uni-karlsruhe.de |
|---|
| 10 | |
|---|
| 11 | Special thanks to François Pinard <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>, who did a |
|---|
| 12 | major part of the testing, provided the Emacs PO mode, and wrote major |
|---|
| 13 | parts of the manual. |
|---|
| 14 | |
|---|
| 15 | Peter Miller <millerp@canb.auug.org.au> invested a lot of his time in making |
|---|
| 16 | gettext usable in other GNU projects and wrote the msgmerge, msgcmp, and |
|---|
| 17 | msgunfmt programs. |
|---|
| 18 | |
|---|
| 19 | Guido Flohr <guido@imperia.net> wrote the Perl backend of xgettext and |
|---|
| 20 | the libintl-perl package. |
|---|
| 21 | |
|---|
| 22 | Gora Mohanty <gora_mohanty@yahoo.co.in> wrote the tutorial. |
