CONTENTS

Acknowledgments
The process of designing and implementing CLIM and writing the CLIM specification has been a
long and sometimes bumpy one. The first thanks have to go to the people and organizations who
allowed the people working on CLIM to continue to do so, despite the obstacles. In particular,
Mark Son-Bell of ILA; Bob Laddaga and Saiid Zarrabian at Symbolics (and before or with them,
Ken Sinclair, Rick Karash, and Mark Graffam); and Jim Vietch and Hanoch Eiron of Franz,
Inc. have struggled with various and sometimes conflicting business interests through the whole
process.

The attendees of the CLIM coalition meetings and those who contributed to CLIM along the
way include all of those listed on the title page, but also include Bob Kerns, Chris Richardson
and John Irwin, Paul Weineke and JonL White, and Kevin Males. Other contributors include
Mike McMahon, Paul Robertson, John Hotchkiss, Dave Lowry, Mike Greenwald, Dave Schatsky,
and Glenn Adams.

Sonya Keene, Ann Hathaway, and Ellen Golden all deserve credit for improving the quality
of this specification (in part by authoring the original CLIM documentation), as does Mark
Nahabedian.

Kent Pitman provided much useful advice on the mechanics of writing a specification, and this
document improved significantly because of that.

Last but not least are the people who have continued to use CLIM for the duration of this
lengthy process. The people at BBN (Bruce Roberts and his group) have been a continuing
source of valuable information and suggestions. Also, Markus Fischer of Symbolics GmbH had
to deal with more than his fair share of problems, the result of using CLIM in novel ways.
