										 |  |  |  | The _WSJT_ project was started by *K1JT* in 2001.  Since 2005 it has | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | been an Open Source project, which now includes the programs _WSJT_, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | _MAP65_, _WSPR_, _WSJT-X_, and _WSPR-X_.  *G4WJS* (since 2013) and | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | *K9AN* (since 2015) have made major contributions to _WSJT-X_. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | Together with K1JT they now form the core development team. |

										 |  |  |  | All code in the _WSJT_ project is licensed under the GNU Public | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | License (GPL).  Many users of these programs, too numerous to mention | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | here individually, have contributed suggestions and advice that have | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | greatly aided the development of _WSJT_ and its sister programs.  For | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | _WSJT-X_ in particular, we acknowledge contributions from *AC6SL, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | AE4JY, DJ0OT, G3WDG, G4KLA, IV3NWV, IW3RAB, K3WYC, KA6MAL, KA9Q, |

							|  |  |  |  | VK7MO, W4TI, W4TV, and W9MDB*.  Each of these amateurs has helped to | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | bring the program’s design, code, testing, and/or documentation to its | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | present state. |

							|  |  |  |  | Most of the color palettes for the _WSJT-X_ waterfall were copied from | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | the excellent, well documented, open-source program _fldigi_, by *W1HKJ* | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | and friends. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | 
 | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | We use development tools and libraries from many sources.  We | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | particularly wish to acknowledge importance of the GNU Compiler | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |  | Collection from the Free Software Foundation, the "clang" compiler |
