<h1><em>About Lynx</em></h1>
<p>Lynx is a fully-featured <em>World Wide Web</em>
(<em>WWW</em>) browser for users on Unix, VMS, and other
platforms running cursor-addressable, character-cell terminals or
emulators. That includes vt100 terminals, other character-cell
displays, and vt100 emulators such as Kermit or Procomm running
on PCs or Macs.</p>
<p>For information on how to use Lynx see the <a href=
"Lynx_users_guide.html">Lynx User's Guide</a>, or the <a href=
"lynx_help_main.html">Lynx help files</a>.</p>
<h2><em>Credits and Copyright</em></h2>
<p>Lynx was a product of the Distributed Computing Group within
Academic Computing Services of <a href=
"http://www.cc.ukans.edu/">The University of Kansas</a>.</p>
<p>Lynx was originally developed by <a href=
"http://www.cc.ukans.edu/cwis/people/Lou.Montulli.html">Lou
Montulli</a>, <a href="http://www.cc.ku.edu/~grobe/">Michael
Grobe</a>, and <a href=
"http://www.cc.ukans.edu/cwis/people/Charles.Rezac.html">Charles
Rezac</a>. <a href=
"http://www.cc.ukans.edu/cwis/people/Garrett/Garrett_Arch_Blythe.html">
Garrett Blythe</a> created <a href=
"http://www.cc.ukans.edu/about_doslynx/doslynx.html">DosLynx</a>
and later joined the Lynx effort as well. Following the
departures of Lou and Garrett for positions at Netscape in the
summer of 1994, <em>Craig Lavender</em> provided support services
for Lynx, and <em>Ravikumar Kolli</em> for DosLynx.</p>
<p>Lynx is maintained and supported by members of the Internet
community coordinated via the <a href=
"#lynx-dev_list"><em>lynx-dev mailing list</em></a>.</p>
<p>Lynx is derived from material copyrighted by the University of
Kansas. However most of the release (and corresponding copyright)
is the work of developers on the <a href=
"#lynx-dev_list"><em>lynx-dev mailing list</em></a>. It is
distributed <a href="COPYHEADER">without restrictions on usage or
redistribution</a> under the <a href="COPYING">GNU General Public
License (Version 2)</a>.</p>
<p>Lynx was built over an early version of the Common Code
Library developed by the CERN WWW Project. That code is
copyrighted by CERN. Lynx contains other sections of code that
are copyrighted by other institutions or individuals. The Lynx
copyright does not override or invalidate those copyrights.</p>
<p>Thanks to <a name="13" href=
"http://www.w3.org/People/Berners-Lee/">Tim Berners-Lee</a> and
the other <a name="14" href="http://www.w3.org/People.html">CERN
World Wide Web wizards</a> for the WWW client library code and
all of their other work on the WWW project, NCSA and the <a href=
"http://archive.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/Mosaic/NCSAMosaicHome.html">
Mosaic</a> developers, and to everyone out in netland who has
contributed to Lynx's development either directly (through
comments or bug reports) or indirectly (through inspiration and
development of other systems).</p>
<p>Also, special thanks go to <em>Foteos Macrides</em> who ported
much of Lynx to VMS and did much of its development following Lou
Montulli's and Garrett Blythe's departures from the University of
Kansas, and to <em>Earl Fogel</em> of the University of
Saskatchewan. Earl implemented the hypertext engine HYPERREZ in
the Unix environment. HYPERREZ was developed by Niel Larson of
Think.com and served as the model for the early versions of Lynx
which did not use the WWW libraries and had their own hypertext
format.</p>
