Thanks
First of all I would like to thank everyone from Discovery Gaming Community (http://discoverygc.com) for support and help during the development and testing of this mod.
Lots of thanks to Majk, hoster of our new official RP server; thanks to everyone who donated, without you building the new server could not've been possible. Thanks to BULLDOGNK for providing his server for our testing and gameplay needs.
Thanks to Korrd, Nightfall, BULLDOGNK, Caylith, Kane, and Fellow Hoodlum, the best server admins ever who provide me freedom to care about the mod (or care about my laziness :)
Very special thanks to Wolfpack for hosting and administering the Discovery Freelancer 24/7 server (2005-2007).
Thanks to Angel of Mercy, Doom, dude42, Epyon the Bored, I m rdy, Legeonation, Mohr, Treewyrm, and Vaporlynx for creating great new ship models for Discovery. Thanks to everyone who submitted systems for including into Discovery.
