C.1 Acknowledgements

The initial development of STILTS was done under the UK's Starlink project (1980-2005, R.I.P.), without which it would not have been written. From July 2005 until June 2006, it was supported by grant PP/D002486/1 from the UK's Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council. Maintenance and development has been funded from July 2006 until December 2007 by the European VOTech project within the UK's AstroGrid, and directly from AstroGrid funding beyond that.

Apart from the excellent Java 2 Standard Edition itself, the following external libraries provide important parts of STILTS's functionality:

Thanks in particular to Nickolai Kouropatkine and Chris Stoughton of Fermilab for writing the PixTools specially for use in STIL.

Many people have contributed ideas and advice to the development of STILTS and its related products. I can't list all of them here, but my thanks are especially due to the following:
