FunnelWeb was conceived, designed and implemented by Ross Williams in 1986, 1992, and 1999. The FunnelWeb webs were originally written by Ross Williams in 1992 in the form of a printed manual, and converted by him to webs in April 1999.

FunnelWeb was the main tool used to create these FunnelWeb webs. Each web was written as a single FunnelWeb `.fw` file which, when processed by FunnelWeb, generates all the `.shtml` files.

I would like to thank a number of people who assisted me (Ross Williams) during the creation of FunnelWeb.

Many thanks to David Hulse for translating the original version of FunnelWeb (FunnelWeb V1) from Ada into C (FunnelWeb V2) and getting it to work on Unix and a PC. The C code written by David (FunnelWeb V2) formed the basis of FunnelWeb V3.

Thanks go to Simon Hackett of Internode Systems for the use of his Sun, Mac, and PC, for assistance in porting FunnelWeb to the Sun and PC, and for helpful discussions.

Thanks go to Jeremy Begg of VSM Software Services for the use of his VAX, and for assistance with the VMS-specific code.

Thanks to Barry Dwyer and Roger Brissenden for trying out FunnelWeb Version 1 in 1987 and providing valuable feedback.

Thanks to Donald Knuth for establishing the idea of literate programming in the first place.
