<p><a href="../../../../people/dave_abrahams.htm">Dave Abrahams</a> is
the architect, designer, and implementor of <b>Boost.Python</b>.</p>
<p>Joel de Guzman implemented the <a href="overloads.html">default
argument support</a> and wrote the excellent tutorial documentation.</p>
<p><a href="../../../../people/ralf_w_grosse_kunstleve.htm">Ralf W.
Grosse-Kunstleve</a> implemented the <a href="pickle.html">pickle
support</a>, and has enthusiastically supported the library since its
birth, contributing to design decisions and providing invaluable
real-world insight into user requirements. Ralf has written some
extensions for converting C++ containers that I hope will be incorporated
into the library soon. He also implemented the cross-module support in
the first version of Boost.Python. More importantly, Ralf makes sure
nobody forgets the near-perfect synergy of C++ and Python for solving the
problems of large-scale software construction.</p>
<p><a href="mailto:achim@procoders.net">Achim Domma</a> contributed some
of the <a href="reference.html#object_wrappers">Object Wrappers</a> and
HTML templates for this documentation. Dave Hawkes contributed
inspiration for the use of the <code><a href=
"scope.html#scope-spec">scope</a></code> class to simplify module
definition syntax. Pearu Pearson wrote some of the test cases that are in
the current test suite.</p>
<p>Martin Casado solved some sticky problems which allow us to build the
Boost.Python shared library for AIX's crazy dynamic linking model.</p>
<p>The development of this version of Boost.Python was funded in part by
the <a href="http://www.llnl.gov/">Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratories</a> and by the <a href="http://cci.lbl.gov/">Computational
Crystallography Initiative</a> at Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratories.</p>
<p><a href="http://kogs-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~koethe/">Ullrich
Koethe</a> provided the implementation of inheritance and special
method/operator support in the first version of Boost.Python.</p>
<p>The first version of Boost.Python would not have been possible without
the support of Dragon Systems, which supported its development and
release as a Boost library.</p>
