www.it-ebooks.info•AcknowledgmentsThe tenth anniversary marking the publication of my first book is fast approaching, a milestone whichI'll meet with both humility and wonderment. The truth is that it's a shared milestone, for although myname appears on the cover, this decade-long run would be impossible without the efforts of a trulyspecial group of individuals. The thoughtful comments of my longtime technical reviewer Matt Wadehave once again vastly improved the material. Project manager Jennifer Blackwell did a great job ofkeeping me on track and in check over the course of a tight schedule. Editors Tom Welsh and MichelleLowman cast their keen eyes over the chapters, offering valuable advice throughout. Copy Editor MaryBehr deftly caught and corrected my numerous grammatical gaffes. Recognition is also due to thesignificant number of other individuals responsible for production, marketing, sales, and countlessother duties which result in books such as mine seeing the light of day. Thanks as always to Apress cofounderGary Cornell for having given me the opportunity so many years ago to put my thoughts onpaper. I look forward to another great ten years.Finally, thanks to Carli, Jodi, Paul, Ruby, my parents, and other family members and friends forreminding me that there is life away from the keyboard.xxxi
