        !             2: Following people contributed ideas or helped to find bugs in Hatari etc.,
        !             3: so we'd like to say thank you here (listed in random order - and if someone
        !             4: is missing here, please remind me!):

        !             6: - Anders Eriksson (Evil/DHS): Helped improving STE's emulation by
        !             7:   running many tests programs and providing the source code for some
        !             8:   non-working demos.
        !             9: 
        !            10: - Douglas Little: wrote and run some test programs for 030 cycle
        !            11:   accuracy and FPU, tested & gave feedback on Hatari CPU & DSP profiler
        !            12:   features, debugged Hatari DSP emulation issues.
        !            13: 
        !            14: - Roger Burrows: EmuTOS maintainer, reported bugs in several areas
        !            15:   including I/O memory access & TT emulation (timer-C, video).  Ran
        !            16:   some test programs on real hardware and wrote some test programs
        !            17:   himself.
        !            18: 
        !            19: - Vincent Riviere: EmuTOS maintainer, reported bugs about GEMDOS HD,
        !            20:   TOS ROM handling, 32-bit IDE transfers, bus error fault in 24-bit,
        !            21:   Debian bugs on Hatari Python UI, debugger enhancement suggestions.
        !            22: 
        !            23: - Fredrik Noring : Tracked down a bug in the blitter emulation and a

        !            25: 
        !            26: - Jean Louis Guerin (DrCoolZic): 'Panzer' program, very useful
        !            27:   for testing some FDC behaviours and timings on real hardware and to
        !            28:   compare them with the emulated system. Also wrote some nice docs on
        !            29:   WD1772 and methods commonly used for games' protections.
        !            30: 
        !            31: - George Nakos : Helped to track down a bug in the GEMDOS HD emulation.

        !            37:   that tedious work, it helped tracking down some less common cases
        !            38:   not used in demos (keyboard, joystick, FDC, tos, ...).

        !            42:   of the STF inner work, very useful to improve emulation accuracy.
        !            43: 
        !            44: - Paulo Simoes (ljkb): made some of the first descriptions of wakestates,

        !            49:   and helped in reverse-engineering the behaviour of those chips (MMU address
        !            50:   decoding)
        !            51: 
        !            52: - Matthias Alles : He initiated the port of Hatari to MiNT and helped
