-@c AUTHORS
-
-@c The Guile reference and tutorial manuals were written and edited
-@c largely by Mark Galassi and Jim Blandy. In particular, Jim wrote the
-@c original tutorial on Guile's data representation and the C API for
-@c accessing Guile objects.
-
-@c Significant portions were contributed by Gary Houston (contributions
-@c to POSIX system calls and networking, expect, I/O internals and
-@c extensions, slib installation, error handling) and Tim Pierce
-@c (sections on script interpreter triggers, alists, function tracing).
-
-@c Tom Lord contributed a great deal of material with early Guile
-@c snapshots; although most of this text has been rewritten, all of it
-@c was important, and some of the structure remains.
-
-@c Aubrey Jaffer wrote the SCM Scheme implementation and manual upon
-@c which the Guile program and manual are based. Some portions of the
-@c SCM and SLIB manuals have been included here verbatim.
-
-@c Since Guile 1.4, Neil Jerram has been maintaining and improving the
-@c reference manual. Among other contributions, he wrote the Basic
-@c Ideas chapter, developed the tools for keeping the manual in sync
-@c with snarfed libguile docstrings, and reorganized the structure so as
-@c to accommodate docstrings for all Guile's primitives.
-
-@c Martin Grabmueller has made substantial contributions throughout the
-@c reference manual in preparation for the Guile 1.6 release, including
-@c filling out a lot of the documentation of Scheme data types, control
-@c mechanisms and procedures. In addition, he wrote the documentation
-@c for Guile's SRFI modules and modules associated with the Guile REPL.
