11. 原着鸣谢

感谢古往今来帮助过我写完这份教程的人。感谢 Ashley 帮我将封面设计做成最棒的程序员风格丶感谢产出自由（free）软件与套件的所有人，让我可以做出这份教程：GNU丶Slackware丶vim丶Python丶Inkscape丶Apache FOP丶Firefox丶Red Hat 与许多其它软件丶最後特感谢数以千计的你们所写来的改善建议，以及文字上的鼓励。 我将这份教程献给我心目中电脑领域的大牛及鼓励我的人：Donald Knuth丶Bruce Schneier丶W. Richard Stevens 与 The Woz丶我的读者丶以及整个自由与开源码软件社区。 这本书是以 XML 撰写，使用装载着 GNU tools 的 Slackware Linux 系统与 vim 编辑器。 封面的＂艺术＂与图片是使用 Inkscape 产生的，使用自定义的 Python scripts 将 XML 转换为 HTML 与 XSL-FO。接着用 Apache FOP 将 XSL-FO 输出档转为 Liberation 字体的 PDF 文档，Toolchain 100% 都使用自由与开源软件。

译注：上述的封面应是本教程纸质书的封面。
