Special thanks:  To the &kde; and &Qt; developers for providing the
world with a peerless set of free API libraries.  To the KDevelop
team, for their excellent IDE, which made developing &kstars; so much
easier and more fun.  To everyone on the KDevelop message board, the 
KDE mailing lists, and on irc.kde.org, for answering my frequent 
questions.  Thank you to Anne-Marie Mahfouf, for inviting KStars to 
join the KDE-Edu module.  Finally, thanks to everyone who has submitted 
bug reports and other feedback.  Thank you, everyone.
