We haven't kept proper track of everybody who has helped us, alas, but
 | 
						|
here's a first attempt at acknowledgements...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Most of the FreeS/WAN software has been done by Richard Guy Briggs
 | 
						|
(KLIPS), D. Hugh Redelmeier (Pluto), Michael Richardson (technical lead,
 | 
						|
KLIPS, testing, etc.), Henry Spencer (past technical lead, scripts, 
 | 
						|
libraries, packaging, etc.), Sandy Harris (documentation), Claudia 
 | 
						|
Schmeing (support, documentation), and Sam Sgro (support, releases).
 | 
						|
Peter Onion has collaborated extensively with RGB on PFKEY2 stuff.  The
 | 
						|
original version of our IPComp code came from Svenning Soerensen, who has
 | 
						|
also contributed various bug fixes and improvements. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The first versions of Pluto were done by Angelos D. Keromytis
 | 
						|
<angelos@dsl.cis.upenn.edu>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The MD2 implementation is from RSA Data Security Inc., so this package must
 | 
						|
include the following phrase: "RSA Data Security, Inc. MD2 Message Digest
 | 
						|
Algorithm"  It is not under the GPL; see details in programs/pluto/md2.c.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The MD5 implementation is from RSA Data Security Inc., so this package must
 | 
						|
include the following phrase:  "derived from the RSA Data Security, Inc.
 | 
						|
MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm".  It is not under the GPL; see details in
 | 
						|
linux/net/ipsec/ipsec_md5c.c.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The PKCS#11 header files in programs/pluto/rsaref/ are from RSA Security Inc.,
 | 
						|
so they must include the following phrase: "RSA Security Inc. PKCS#11
 | 
						|
Cryptographic Token Interface (Cryptoki)". The headers are not under the GPL;
 | 
						|
see details in programs/pluto/rsaref/pkcs11.h.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The LIBDES library by Eric Young is used.  It is not under the GPL -- see
 | 
						|
details in libdes/COPYRIGHT -- although he has graciously waived the
 | 
						|
advertising clause for FreeS/WAN use of LIBDES. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The SHA-1 code is derived from Steve Reid's; it is public domain.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some bits of Linux code, notably drivers/net/new_tunnel.c and net/ipv4/ipip.c,
 | 
						|
are used in heavily modified forms.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The lib/pfkeyv2.h header file contains public-domain material published in
 | 
						|
RFC 2367.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Delete SA code and Notification messages were contributed by Mathieu Lafon.
 | 
						|
He also implemented the vital NAT traversal support.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Peter Onion has been immensely helpful in finding portability bugs in
 | 
						|
general, and in making FreeS/WAN work on the Alpha in particular.  Rob
 | 
						|
Hatfield likewise found and fixed some problems making it work on the
 | 
						|
Netwinder.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
John S. Denker of AT&T Shannon Labs has found a number of bugs the hard
 | 
						|
way, has pointed out various problems (some of which we have fixed!) in
 | 
						|
using the software in production applications, and has suggested some
 | 
						|
substantial improvements to the documentation.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Marc Boucher <marc@mbsi.ca> did a quick-and-dirty port of KLIPS to the
 | 
						|
Linux 2.2.x kernels, at a time when we needed it badly, and has helped
 | 
						|
chase down 2.2.xx bugs and keep us current with 2.4.x development.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
John Gilmore organized the FreeS/WAN project and continues to direct it.
 | 
						|
Hugh Daniel handles day-to-day management, customer interface, and both
 | 
						|
constructive and destructive testing.  See the project's web page
 | 
						|
<http://www.freeswan.org> for other contributors to this project and
 | 
						|
related ones.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Herbert Xu ported the FreeS/WAN code to the native IPsec stack
 | 
						|
of the Linux 2.6 kernel.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Kai Martius added initial support of OpenPGP certificates.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Andreas Steffen introduced the support of X.509 certificates in 2000
 | 
						|
and has been both maintaining the  X.509 code and adding extensions 
 | 
						|
to it ever since.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Andreas Hess, Patric Lichtsteiner, and Roger Wegmann implemented the
 | 
						|
the initial X.509 certificate support, relying on Kai Martius's work.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Marco Bertossa and Andreas Schleiss implemented the verification of
 | 
						|
the X.509 chain from the peer certificate up to the root CA.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Ueli Galizzi and Ariane Seiler did the original work on the support
 | 
						|
of attribute certificates.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Martin Berner and Lukas Suter implemented the definition of group 
 | 
						|
attributes and dynamic fetching of attribute certificates.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Christoph Gysin and Simon Zwahlen implemented PKCS#15-based
 | 
						|
smartcard suppport and contributed a fully operational OCSP client.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
David Buechi and Michael Meier implemented the PKCS#11 smartcard
 | 
						|
interface.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The support of port and protocol selectors was based on Stephen J.
 | 
						|
Bevan's original work.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Stephane Laroche donated the original LDAP and HTTP fetching code
 | 
						|
based on pthreads.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
JuanJo Ciarlante introduced the modular support of alternative
 | 
						|
encryption and authentication algorithms (AES, Serpent, twofish, etc).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The ipsec starter is based on Mathieu Lafon's original work.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Jan Hutter and Martin Willi developed the scepclient which fully
 | 
						|
supports Cisco's Simple Certificate Enrollment Protocol (SCEP).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Tobias Brunner and Daniel Roethlisberger implemented NAT traversal and
 | 
						|
dead peer detection for the IKEv2 keying daemon.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Daniel Wydler implemented the integrity test of the libstrongswan code
 | 
						|
using the FIPS_canister code from the OpenSSL-FIPS project.
