The _WSJT_ project was started by *K1JT* in 2001. Since 2005 it has
|
||
been an Open Source project, which now includes the programs _WSJT_,
|
||
_MAP65_, _WSPR_, _WSJT-X_, and _WSPR-X_. *G4WJS* (since 2013), *K9AN*
|
||
(since 2015), and *IV3NWV* (since 2016) have made major contributions
|
||
to _WSJT-X_. Together with K1JT they now form the core development
|
||
team. *G4WJS* and *W9MDB* have made major contributions to _hamlib_,
|
||
on which _WSJT-X_ depends for rig control.
|
||
|
||
All code in the _WSJT_ project is licensed under the GNU Public
|
||
License (GPL). Many users of these programs, too numerous to mention
|
||
here individually, have contributed suggestions and advice that have
|
||
greatly aided the development of _WSJT_ and its sister programs. For
|
||
_WSJT-X_ in particular, we acknowledge contributions from *AC6SL,
|
||
AE4JY, DF2ET, DJ0OT, G3WDG, G4KLA, IW3RAB, K3WYC, KA1GT, KA6MAL, KA9Q,
|
||
KB1ZMX, KD6EKQ, KI7MT, KK1D, ND0B, PY2SDR, VE1SKY, VK3ACF, VK4BDJ,
|
||
VK7MO, W3DJS, W3SZ, W4TI, W4TV, and W9MDB*. Each of these amateurs
|
||
has helped to bring the program’s design, code, testing, and/or
|
||
documentation to its present state.
|
||
|
||
Most of the color palettes for the _WSJT-X_ waterfall were copied from
|
||
the excellent, well documented, open-source program _fldigi_, by *W1HKJ*
|
||
and friends.
|
||
|
||
We use development tools and libraries from many sources. We
|
||
particularly wish to acknowledge importance of the GNU Compiler
|
||
Collection from the Free Software Foundation, the "clang" compiler
|
||
from LLVM at the University of Illinois, and the Qt Project from Digia
|
||
PLC. Other important resources include the FFTW library by Matteo
|
||
Frigo and Steven G. Johnson; SLALIB, the Positional Astronomy Library
|
||
by P. T. Wallace; and a high-precision planetary ephemeris and
|
||
associated software from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
