While much of the code in the OSKit was developed outside the University of Utah, by large free operating systems projects--most notable are the FreeBSD, Linux, Mach and NetBSD projects--the OSKit proper was developed by members of the University of Utah's Flux Research Group, including (in alphabetical order): Chris Alfeld, Dave Andersen, Godmar Back, Greg Benson (U.C. Davis on location at Utah), Steve Clawson, Bryan Ford, Shantanu Goel, Mike Hibler, Jay Lepreau, Roland McGrath, Bart Robinson, Steve Smalley (on location at Utah), Leigh Stoller, Sai Susarla, Patrick Tullmann, and Kevin Van Maren. While many of these made huge contributions, Bryan Ford stands out for conceiving the OSKit and doing most of the early development and architecture. The majority of the OSKit work was done under DARPA support, which we gratefully acknowledge. Finally, the GNU build tool chain was essential, as usual.
