The information in these FAQs was originally written (at various times) by Bob Klein, Jonathan Ingersoll, Will Allred, Bob Heer, Jon Lovstad and Rob Sharp. It's been modified by the various members of the GCD-Tech list and information has been gathered from emails to various GCD Mailing lists. The current break-out and re-write was developed by Peter Croome with help from Tim Stroup and Jim Vandore.
