Thanks for sharing his excellent microwave knowledge. Also for partly implementing the noise simulation. Jens Flucke for making up the first draft of the homepage. Also for motivating the project. Vincent Habchi, F5RCS <10.50@free.fr> for testing the simulator, giving good hints how to improve its functionality and initiating the coplanar issues. Raimund Jacob for wildly testing the application and for applying patches to CVS during my time in Munich. Also for documenting the grammars used in Qucs's data files. Gunther Kraut for his contributions to the equation solver evaluation. Also for providing the exponential current and voltage source code as well as the file based source. Helene Parruitte for her Verilog-AMS interface using the adms application. Thanks for implementing the HICMU/L2 v2.11 and v2.22 device models and testing it. Also for encouraging some changes in the simulator including the concept of so-called trans-capacitances in non-linear device models. Bertrand Ardouin for allowing Helene to spend a significant amount of time of her internship at XMOD to implement the Verilog-AMS interface. Also for letting her work to be published under the GPL. Bastien Roucaries for the bondwire model implementations. Mike Brinson for testing the EDD component during his modelling activities. Also for the Verilog-A implementation of the modular operational amplifier. Thanks for testing the SPICE to qucs converter and documenting the compatibilty levels.
