 
 thank you!
To Kirsten Windelov, whose idea this kinda was. To Conor Cradden who gave it clarity, backbone and sense. To Paul Cochrane, who prepared the ground years ago. And Wendy Caird, who saw everything so clearly. And John Watson, for working his miracles in the background. And Laura Kansanen, for funk and a friendly tap on the shoulder at just the right time. And Charles Heckscher, for making us think about all this stuff for years. And Polly Miller for knowing what comes first. And Brendan Martin, who has that rare combination of genius, humour and humility. And a perfect stranger called David Miles - a  freelance Canadian PHP guru - who helped sort out the code for the Online Library for no reason other than he's a nice guy. And all the very good folk at La Clinique des Vallees, but more about that later. And the champions who are collectively building Flickr, for providing a graphical base which we could never have afforded to pay for (we'll be thanking the individual photographers from the Creative Commons as soon as we manage to track back to where we got all the images from!) And of course to Google, who just keep on coming up with more and more great stuff and giving it away. Where'd we be without the kind of thinking that propels openess and innovation online?
