<br>jIRCii has been a work in progress for a long time now. I originally started it as a project to learn java while in high school. I tinkered with it as a hobby throughout college. I didn't make that final push to create a release quality product until now though. Anyways with such a long history as a project there are to many people to thank so I'm going to keep this list short.

<br>Mouton - found and fixed a Ctrl+K parsing bug
<br>Elly - built initial UnrealIRCD support, bug fixes

<br><b>Peter Arsoff</b></font>
<br>I'd like to thank Peter Arsoff (aka JakieChan). He's the one who created the jIRC logo and all of the little window icons you see. He also hates Java.
<br>
<br><b>blue-elf</b></font>
<br>I absolutely have to acknowledge the help and constant feedback provided by blue-elf. We've been exchanging ideas and complaints on a near daily basis for months now. His influence on the outcome of this client is huge. If it sucks blame him, if this client is good then acknowledge me.
<br>
<br><b>hick.org</b></font>
<br><a href="http://www.hick.org/">hick.org</a> is awesome. hick.org provides hosting for jIRCii and other projects I have free of charge. I'm greatly appreciative of this. I'm not sure if this is because they think these projects are cool or if its because they've forgotten I have an account on the machine. One way or another the end result is the same, thanks for the hosting guys.
<br>
<br><b>Tijiez</b></font>
<br>I owe a thanks as well to Tijiez for running the jIRCii mirror site at <a href="http://jircii.leenux.net">http://jircii.leenux.net</a>. Tijiez has had a huge influence on jIRCii through a series of constant complaints and feature requests.
<br>
<br><b>www.irchelp.org/</b></font>
<br>I'd also like to acknowledge <a href="http://www.irchelp.org">www.irchelp.org</a>. They run a very informative website full of information for the beginning irc user. I've used some of there work here in the jIRCii help file. Hopefully they don't mind :)
<br>
<br><b>Tjerk Vonck</b></font>
<br>I owe a shout out to <a href="http://www.mirc.co.uk">Tjerk Vonck</a> for his excellent servers.ini file. I wouldn't want to mantain that monster. jIRCii uses the mIRC servers.ini format for its server list. Thanks for mantaining that file!
<br>
<br><b>Targaff</b></font>
<br>The nifty default jIRCii toolbar file was created by an mIRC user, Targaff. jIRCii's toolbar file format is semi compatible with mIRC's. Targaff did an excellent job and I wanted to make sure credit is given where credit is due.

<br><b>Claude Duguay</b></font>
<br>Source code for the sorted table (used in the /list dialog) is (c)opyright 2002 Claude Duguay. I was feeling lazy so I opted to use some code Carl had submitted to the magazine JavaPro.
<br>
<br><b>You?</b></font>
<br>All those folks whom I knew on IRC that feel like they didn't get greeted: You probably did, look around the client for easter eggs.
