Acknowledgments

We would like to start by thanking our two very thorough and knowledgeable technical reviewers, Mark Wallace and David Taieb. Thanks to you both for keeping us honest and for providing invaluable feedback—most of which we included here. ;-)

A big and sincere thank you to all those in the Notes/Domino application development leadership team for supporting this project—especially to Eamon Muldoon, Pete Janzen, Maureen Leland, Peter Rubinstein, and Philippe Riand.

Behind us are some very special teams of people—particularly the XPages runtime team in IBM Ireland and the Domino Designer team in Littleton, Massachusetts. Each member of these teams has unique strengths and skills, which we have completely exploited over the course of writing this book. The user experience and documentation teams also worked closely with us and helped bring clarity and objectivity to all we do. Our thanks to all: Andrejus Chaliapinas, Brian Gleeson, Darin Egan, Edel Gleeson, Graham O’Keeffe, Greg Grunwald, Jim Cooper, Jim Quill, Kathy Howard, Lisa Henry, Lorcan McDonald, Mark Vincenzes, Michael Blout, Mike Kerrigan, Padraic Edwards, Paul Hannan, Robert Harwood, Robert Perron, Simon McLoughlin, Teresa Monahan, and Vin Manduca.

It was once again a tremendous privilege for us to work with our friends at IBM Press, particularly Mary Beth Ray, Ellie Bru, Anne Goebel, Vanessa Evans, and Chris Cleveland. On the IBM side, Steven Stansel and Ellice Uffer worked tirelessly on getting the message out there for the Mastering XPages book and are already beating the drum for this one! Thanks for the help and the fun along the way.

Finally a great big thank you as always to our customers and business partners for continuing to explore new ground with XPages and driving further adoption of this most truly wonderful technology. Viva XPages!
