  11   <p><b>Moodle </b>the package is Copyright &copy; 1999-2004<a target=_top href="http://dougiamas.com/">
  12   Martin Dougiamas</a>, and distributed under the <a href="?file=licence.html">

  16     <p><b><a target=_top href="http://pctaylor.com">Associate Professor Peter C. Taylor</a></b>, at
  17   Curtin University of Technology in Perth, Australia, for working with the earliest

  19 </p>

  21   <h2>Translations</h2>
  22   <blockquote>
  23     <p>Many thanks to every person who has contributed to translating Moodle into
  24     different languages. Each translation takes many hours of work, as there are
  25     over 1000 phrases to translate (plus all the help files!). Many of the languages
  26     have more than one contributor, sometimes working together and sometimes they've
  27     taken over the work from a previous person.
  28   </p>
  29     <p>Maintaining a list of everyone here is too difficult. For the most up-to-date
  30     information see the <a target=_top href="http://moodle.org/download/lang/">Language
  31     download page</a>. </p>
  32   </blockquote>
  33   <h2>Themes</h2>
  34   <blockquote>

  36     as part of the Moodle distribution, along with their authors:

  89   <h2>Moodle libraries</h2>
  90   <blockquote>
  91     <p>Some of Moodle's libraries were written by other people, and are being redistributed
  92     as part of Moodle under their respective open source licenses that thankfully
  93     allow us to do so. My thanks go out to the authors of all these excellent
  94     products - without them Moodle would be missing important functionality. Copyright
  95     information for each package is included below:</p>
