----------------------------------------------------------------------
All fundamental changes to the system after May, 1995 
including the design of the
STk interface and changes to the Collection and Graph
hierarchies, are due to Jonathan Berry, who spent a year at DIMACS
working almost exclusively on this system.  Very few of these
contributions are documented in the individual files, so it is 
better to use the mailing list link-list@dimacs.rutgers.edu
(monitored by Dr. Berry) than to attempt to contact individual 
file creators when problems are encountered.
