  29 <p>
  30       I am indebted to <a href="http://boost.org/people/joel_de_guzman.htm" target="_top">Joel
  31       de Guzman</a> and <a href="http://boost.org/people/hartmut_kaiser.htm" target="_top">Hartmut
  32       Kaiser</a> for their expert advice during the early states of xpressive's
  33       development. Much of static xpressive's syntax is owes a large debt to <a href="http://spirit.sourceforge.net" target="_top">Spirit</a>, including the syntax for
  34       xpressive's semantic actions. I am thankful for <a href="http://boost.org/people/john_maddock.htm" target="_top">John
  35       Maddock</a>'s excellent work on his proposal to add regular expressions
  36       to the standard library, and for various ideas borrowed liberally from his
  37       regex implementation. I'd also like to thank <a href="http://moderncppdesign.com/" target="_top">Andrei
  38       Alexandrescu</a> for his input regarding the behavior of nested regex objects,
  39       and <a href="http://boost.org/people/dave_abrahams.htm" target="_top">Dave Abrahams</a>
  40       for his suggestions regarding the regex domain-specific embedded language.
  41       Noel Belcourt helped porting xpressive to the Metrowerks CodeWarrior compiler.
  42       Markus Sch&#246;pflin helped to track down a bug on HP Tru64, and Steven Watanabe
  43       suggested the fix.
  44     </p>
  45 <p>
  46       Special thanks are due to David Jenkins who contributed both ideas, code and
  47       documentation for xpressive's semantic actions, symbol tables and attributes.
  48       Xpressive's ternary search trie implementation is David's, as is the number
  49       parser example in <code class="literal">libs/xpressive/example/numbers.cpp</code> and
  50       the documentation for symbol tables and attributes.
  51     </p>
  52 <p>
  53       Thanks to John Fletcher for helping track down a runtime assertion when using
  54       xpressive with Howard Hinnant's most excellent libc++.
  55     </p>
  56 <p>
  57       Finally, I would like to thank <a href="http://boost.org/people/thomas_witt.html" target="_top">Thomas
  58       Witt</a> for acting as xpressive's review manager.
