Added the appropriate error message when dump fails to open the output file.

[dump.git] / THANKS

$Id: THANKS,v 1.55 2002/03/27 16:48:38 stelian Exp $

Dump and restore were written by the people of the CSRG at the University
of California, Berkeley.

They were ported to Linux by Remy Card <card@Linux.EU.Org>, by using
the Ext2fs library, written by Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>.

Kevin Layer <layer@Franz.COM> added the comparison code in restore.

Doug Paul <dbp@dragonsys.com> helped me to make dump able to backup 2GB+
filesystems.

David Frey <david@eos.lugs.ch> (the old Debian dump maintainer), 
Bdale Garbee <bdale@gag.com> (the new Debian dump maintainer) and the people
from Red Hat Software provided lots of patches.

Stelian Pop <stelian@popies.net> is now the current maintainer (since dump-0.4b5).

Thanks to people who reported problems with the port, sent patches, and
suggested various improvements.
