ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Thanks to everyone at Gtk2-Perl and Moose and all those who came before me for making this module possible.

Special thanks to Jörn Reder, author of Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory, which inspired me to write Gapp. Gapp::TableMap uses modified code directly from Gtk2::Ex::FormFactory::Table (see Gapp::TableMap for more details.)

Special thanks to the authors and contributors of MooseX::Types, which formed the basis for Gapp::Actions (see Gapp::Actions for more details.)
