If we have missed recognizing anyone, we apologize, and please feel free to amend the above list.
Special thanks to the Geeklog development team for all their work on making Geeklog v1.5.0. There is a reason why we chose Geeklog as the foundation for glFusion, because it is an excellent CMS.
Also, special thanks to Blaine Lang from www.portalparts.com for his Forum and FileMgmt plugins. These are key plugins to a value added release and two of the most popular plugins available for Geeklog.
Because we are unable to identify folks who contributed to the original Geeklog wiki documentation, of which parts are duplicated here as applicable, if anyone wishes to be listed individually, please feel free to contact us.
