11 Trinity Core is a derivation/rewrite of MaNGOS, which was originally written
12 by Team Python and the WoW Daemon Team. Many people further helped Trinity Core
13 by submitting bug reports, code patches, and suggestions. Thanks to the
14 community!
15
16 Special thanks should go out to the WowwoW team. We have gained help from
17 them many times in the creation of this project. Keep up the good work guys.
18
19 Thanks to the ImpConfig developer (dythzer) for the custom configuration patch.

21 Thanks to the ScriptDev2 team (http://www.scriptdev2.com) for scripts.

23The easiest policy with this file is to thank everyone who contributes to the
24project, without judging the value of the contribution.
25
26Unlike `AUTHORS', the `THANKS' file is not maintained for legal reasons. It is
27maintained to thank all the contributors that helped you out in your project.
28The `AUTHORS' file can not be used for this purpose because certain
29contributions, like bug reports or ideas and suggestions do not require legal
30paper exchanges.
31
32You can also decide to send some kind of special greeting when you initially
33add a name to your `THANKS' file. The mere presense of a name in `THANKS' is
34then a flag to you that the initial greeting has been sent.
