Acknowledgments
One person can write a book, but alone, one person cannot write a
book like the one you hold in your hand. I send my appreciation to
the oft-unseen engine behind the production, marketing, and sales of
this book. I know you're there and appreciate all of
your effort.
This book wouldn't be what it is without the valiant
efforts of my editor, Brett McLaughlin. His tireless effort has made
it a far better work than it might have been.
Thanks to Michael Loukides for entertaining and supporting the idea
behind this book, and for making it possible to work with Brett.
Thanks to Tim O'Reilly for all the fine tomes that
grace my bookshelf, and for allowing me to add my own title to
O'Reilly's great library.
For their time, feedback and enthusiasm, I would like to thank James
Duncan Davidson and Daniel Steinberg. Both could have written this
book with their eyes shut桰 just got lucky, I guess.
Thanks to Allen Denison for his support and enthusiasm; Bodhi for
taking the time to provide feedback; the MRJ-Dev mailing list for
asking and answering all my questions before I even knew to
articulate them; and everyone at Apple Computer梞any long hours
go into building your beautiful software.
On a personal note, thanks to the entire B-night crew, the Anagamin
players, and the LJ crowd.
And finally, thanks to Mom, Diane, and Cynthia. You are simply
amazing.
