The section on Paged Media was in large parts authored by Robert Stevahn<br />

(HP) and Stephen Waters (Microsoft).<br />

Robert Stevahn (HP), Scott Furman (Netscape), and Scott Isaacs (Microsoft)<br />

were key contributors to CSS Positioning.<br />

Mike Wexler (Adobe) was the editor of the interim working draft, which<br />

described many of the new features of <strong>CSS2</strong>.<br />

T.V. Raman (Adobe) made pivotal contributions towards Aural <strong>Cascading</strong> <strong>Style</strong><br />

<strong>Sheets</strong> (ACSS) and the concepts of aural presentation based on his work on<br />

AsTeR (Audio System For Technical Readings). He contributed an initial draft of<br />

the ACSS specification that shaped the current specification. Values for aural<br />

properties in the HTML 4.0 sample style sheet [p. 291] are of his devising; he<br />

currently uses them on a daily basis on his audio desktop in conjunction with<br />

Emacspeak and the Emacs W3 browser (authored by William Perry, who also<br />

implemented the aural extensions on the W3 side of the fence).<br />

Todd Fahrner (Verso) researched contemporary and historical browsers to<br />

develop the sample style sheet in the appendix.<br />

Thanks to Jan Kärrman, author of html2ps for helping so much in creating the<br />

PostScript version of the specification.<br />

Through electronic and physical encounters, the following people have<br />

contributed to the development of <strong>CSS2</strong>: Alan Borning, Robert Cailliau, Liz<br />

Castro, James Clark, Dan Connolly, Donna Converse, Daniel Dardailler, Al<br />

Gilman, Daniel Greene, Scott Isaacs, Geir Ivarsøy, Vincent Mallet, Kim Marriott,<br />

Brian Michalowski, Lou Montulli, Henrik Frystyk Nielsen, Jacob Nielsen, Eva von<br />

Pepel, William Perry, David Siegel, Peter Stuckey, and Jason White.<br />

The discussions on www-style@w3.org have been influential in many key<br />

issues for CSS. Especially, we would like to thank Bjorn Backlund, Todd Fahrner,<br />

Lars Marius Garshol, Sue Jordan, Ian Hickson, Susan Lesch, Andrew Marshall,<br />

MegaZone, Eric Meyer, Russell O’Connor, David Perrell, Liam Quinn, Jon<br />

Seymour, Neil St. Laurent, Taylor, Brian Wilson, and Chris Wilson for their participation.<br />

Many thanks to the Web Accessibility Initiative Protocols and Formats Technical<br />

Review Working Group (WAI PF) for helping to improve the accessibility of<br />

<strong>CSS2</strong>.<br />

Many thanks to Philippe Le Hégaret, whose CSS validator helped ensure<br />

correct examples and a sensible grammar.<br />

Special thanks to Arnaud Le Hors, whose engineering contributions made this<br />

document work.<br />

Adam Costello improved this specification by performing a detailed review.<br />

Lastly, thanks to Tim Berners-Lee without whom none of this would have been<br />

possible.<br />
