Other contributors prior to Version 0.8 include +Mark Hammond, Jeremy Hylton, Tim Peters, and Moshe Zadka. + +IDLE's recent development has been carried out in the IDLEfork project. +The objective was to develop a version of IDLE which had an execution +environment which could be initialized prior to each run of user code. + +The IDLEfork project was initiated by David Scherer, with some help from Peter +Schneider-Kamp and Nicholas Riley. David wrote the first version of the RPC +code and designed a fast turn-around environment for VPython. Guido developed +the RPC code and Remote Debugger currently integrated in IDLE. Bruce Sherwood +contributed considerable time testing and suggesting improvements. + +Besides David and Guido, the main developers who have been active on IDLEfork +are Stephen M. Gava, who implemented the configuration GUI, the new +configuration system, and the About dialog, and Kurt B. Kaiser, who completed +the integration of the RPC and remote debugger, implemented the threaded +subprocess, and made a number of usability enhancements. + +Other contributors include Raymond Hettinger, Tony Lownds (Mac integration), +Neal Norwitz (code check and clean-up), Ronald Oussoren (Mac integration), +Noam Raphael (Code Context, Call Tips, many other patches), and Chui Tey (RPC +integration, debugger integration and persistent breakpoints). + +Scott David Daniels, Tal Einat, Hernan Foffani, Christos Georgiou, +Jim Jewett, Martin v. Löwis, Jason Orendorff, Josh Robb, Nigel Rowe, +Bruce Sherwood, and Jeff Shute have submitted useful patches. Thanks, guys! + +For additional details refer to NEWS.txt and Changelog. + +Please contact the IDLE maintainer (kbk@shore.net) to have yourself included +here if you are one of those we missed! + + +
