Acknowledgments

WE WERE FORTUNATE TO have several smart, thoughtful editors assist us in polishing this manuscript. First, we'd like to thank Development Editor Tom Cirtin. He deserves credit for his discernment, and the high quality of his editing. He's very good at dealing with his authors, and equally skilled at raising important questions and improving their chapters.

Technical Editor Greg Guntle carefully reviewed the manuscript and made many useful suggestions, caught a number of inconsistencies, and helped improve several code examples. Production Editor Leslie Light ensured that this book moved smoothly through production and was most helpful with suggestions about the graphics, drawings, and screen shots. Suzanne Goraj, copy editor, combed through every line of our text, making improvements throughout.

To all these, and the other good people at Sybex who contributed to this book, our thanks for the intelligence and care that they brought to this book. In addition, the authors would like to give special thanks to their agents, Matt Wagner and David Fugate, of Waterside Productions, whose contributions to the authors' careers goes above and beyond the call of duty.
