There would be no jQuery without the incredible community of users and
core team members, including Brandon Aaron and Jrn Zaefferer on the devel-
opment team; Rey Bango and Karl Swedberg on the evangelism team; Paul

the plugins team with me. This great group of programmers helped propel the
jQuery framework from a tight, simple base of core operations to a world-class
JavaScript library, complete with user-contributed (and modular) support for vir-

contributors; there are a lot of you guys. Suffice it to say that I would not be here

thank you, and I love you.
