George A Reznik and Igor A Serikov
The JCREATE, JSIZE, JMOUNT, JDIR, and JMAX utilities --
George A Reznik
The JCHKDSK utility -- Alex A Vasilenko
The JMW utility -- Oleg Muraveynik
The JCMD utility -- Igor A Serikov and Dmitry S Kohmanyuk
The JPROTECT utility -- Compact Soft group <compact.soft@cs.kiev.ua>
The JAM documentation was written by George A Reznik
Credits
========
Many excellent ideas, help with testing under DR-and Novell DOS,
and several sections of the JAM User's Guide were provided by
Dmitry Kohmanyuk <Dmitry.Kohmanyuk@UA.Net>.
Thanks to Vadim Vlasov <vvlasov@inucres.msk.su> for providing
fragments of source code of his excellent COMBI-Disk package, and
putting up with many comments concerning DOS & Windows internals.
Valuable feedback on the JAM documentation, and many suggestions
on improvement of the JAM functionality were provided by
Peter Gutmann <pgut1@cs.aukuni.ac.nz>.
Oleg Muraveynik investigated several problems with latest versions of
Windows, W4WG, Chicago and commercial packages for them. He also found
an infamous bug in the JAM 1.0 with large compressed drives (300..512M).
Chris Yearsley <cmy@cs.keele.ac.uk> investigated a very unpleasand system
behaviour working with the JAM 1.18 extendable drives (bug in MS-DOS 5
BPB -> DPB convertor (acceessible also as INT 21h/AH=53h)).
Thanks also to Igor Sviridov <sia@cs.kiev.ua>, Dmitry Kohmanyuk
<dk@cs.kiev.ua> and all the good folks at Communication Systems, Ltd.
for their ideas and support during this project.
