The cool High Availability Logo on the front page is (c) 1998, 1999 by Gerard Gorman. Gerard has graciously given his permission to use his logo for the High-Availability Linux project. However, he has not placed the logo into the public domain, but will allow anyone to use it in association with this project (High-Availability Linux) as long as they do not modify the design without his permission. You can reach Gerard by email. Many thanks to Gerard for his time and contributions.
Every person who makes a non-trivial code contribution to the project is required to have their employer send an email to AlanRobertson stating that their contributions are known about and approved by their employer. AlanRobertson will provide sample letters to anyone who needs one.
