+I thank Don Stewart, Henning Thielemann, Bulat Ziganshin, Heinrich Apfelmus,
+and all the people in the Haskell mailing lists for their help.
+
+I am particularly grateful to Vivian McPhail for his excellent
+contributions: improved configure.hs, Binary instances for
+Vector and Matrix, support for Float and Complex Float elements,
+module reorganization, monadic mapVectorM, and many other improvements.
+
+- Nico Mahlo discovered a bug in the eigendecomposition wrapper.
+
+- Frederik Eaton discovered a bug in the design of the wrappers.
+
+- Eric Kidd has created a wiki page explaining the installation on MacOS X:
+  http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/GSLHaskell_on_MacOS_X
+
+- Fawzi Mohamed discovered a portability bug in the lapack wrappers.
+
+- Pedro E. López de Teruel fixed the interface to lapack.
+
+- Antti Siira discovered a bug in the plotting functions.
+
+- Paulo Tanimoto helped to fix the configuration of the required libraries.
+  He also discovered the segfault of minimize.hs in ghci.
+
+- Xiao-Yong Jin reported a bug on x86_64 caused by the assumptions in f2c.h,
+  which are wrong for this architecture.
+
+- Jason Schroeder reported an error in the documentation.
+
+- Bulat Ziganshin gave invaluable help for the ST monad interface to
+  in-place modifications.
+
+- Don Stewart fixed the implementation of the internal data structures
+  to achieve excellent, C-like performance in Haskell functions which
+  explicitly work with the elements of vectors and matrices.
+
+- Dylan Alex Simon improved the numeric instances to allow optimized
+  implementations of signum and abs on Vectors.
+
+- Pedro E. López de Teruel discovered the need of asm("finit") to
+  avoid the wrong NaNs produced by foreign functions.
+
+- Reiner Pope added support for luSolve, based on (d|z)getrs.
+  Made Matrix a product type and added changes to improve the code generated
+  by hmatrix-syntax.
+
+- Simon Beaumont reported the need of QuickCheck<2 and the invalid
+  asm("finit") on ppc. He also contributed the configuration options
+  for the accelerate framework on OS X.
+
+- Daniel Schüssler added compatibility with QuickCheck 2 as well
+  as QuickCheck 1 using the C preprocessor. He also added some
+  implementations for the new "shrink" method of class Arbitrary.
+
+- Tracy Wadleigh improved the definitions of (|>) and (><), which now
+  apply an appropriate 'take' to the given lists so that they may be
+  safely used on lists that are too long (or infinite).
+
+- Chris Waterson improved the configure.hs program for OS/X.
+
+- Erik de Castro Lopo added buildVector and buildMatrix, which take a
+  size parameter(s) and a function that maps vector/matrix indices
+  to the values at that position.
+
+- Jean-Francois Tremblay discovered an error in the tutorial.
+
+- Gilberto Camara contributed improved blas and lapack dlls for Windows.
+
+- Heinrich Apfelmus fixed hmatrix.cabal for OS/X. He also tested the package
+  on PPC discovering a problem in zgesdd.
+
+- Felipe Lessa tested the performance of GSL special function bindings
+  and contributed the cabal flag "safe-cheap".
+
+- Ozgur Akgun suggested better symbols for the Bound constructors in the
+  Linear Programming package.
+
+- Tim Sears reported the zgesdd problem also in intel mac.
+
+- Max Suica simplified the installation on Windows and improved the instructions.
+
+- John Billings first reported an incompatibility with QuickCheck>=2.1.1
+
+- Alexey Khudyakov cleaned up PRAGMAS and fixed some hlint suggestions.
+
+- Torsten Kemps-Benedix reported an installation problem in OS/X.
+
+- Stefan Kersten fixed hmatrix.cabal for 64-bit ghc-7 in OS/X
+
+- Sacha Sokoloski reported an installation problem on Arch Linux and
+  helped with the configuration.
+
+- Carter Schonwald helped with the configuration for Homebrew OS X and
+  found a tolerance problem in test "1E5 rots". He also discovered
+  a bug in the signature of cmap.
+
+- Duncan Coutts reported a problem with configure.hs and contributed
+  a solution and a simplified Setup.lhs.
+
+- Mark Wright fixed the import of vector >= 0.8.
+
+- Bas van Dijk fixed the import of vector >= 0.8, got rid of some
+  deprecation warnings, used more explicit imports, and updated to ghc-7.4.
+
+- Tom Nielsen discovered a problem in Config.hs, exposed by link problems
+  in Ubuntu 11.10 beta.
+
+- Daniel Fischer reported some Haddock markup errors.
+
+- Danny Chan added support for integration over infinite intervals, and fixed
+  Configure.hs using platform independent functions.
+
+- Clark Gaebel removed superfluous thread safety.
+
+- Jeffrey Burdges reported a glpk link problem on OS/X
+
+- Jian Zhang reported the Windows installation problem due to new ODE interface.
+
+- Mihaly Barasz and Ben Gamari fixed mapMatrix* and mapMatrixWithIndex
+
+- Takano Akio fixed off-by-one errors in gsl-aux.c producing segfaults.
+
+- Alex Lang implemented uniRoot and uniRootJ for one-dimensional root-finding.
+

+
+- Stephen J. Barr suggested flipping argument order in the double integral example
+
+- Greg Horn fixed the bus error on ghci 64-bit.
+
+- Kristof Bastiaensen added bindings for one-dimensional minimization.
+
