Its an honor to work with a highly respected publisher like Que. We are grateful to our editor-in-chief, Greg Wiegand, and executive editor, Laura Norman, who played matchmaker and shepherd and brought together a great team to write and produce this book. We are ever so pleased that Rick Kughen was back on our team as development editor with his incisive edits and insightful suggestions, and we extend a big thank you to Tonya Simpson and Dhayanidhi Karunanidhi for keeping everyone on track and making the production process seem effortless. Dont let those job descriptions fool youat Que at least, titles such as development editor and copy editor dont begin to describe the breadth of the contributions that each team member makes to each book.
