Kevin E. Kline’s Acknowledgments
Many people helped deliver the big, thick book you hold in your hands. This note expresses our appreciation to those who helped make this book a reality.
First of all, a big thanks to my two awesome coauthors, Dan and Brand. You guys are amazing and a pleasure to work with. Next, Julie Steele, our editor at O’Reilly Media, gets a big hug for all of her help. You helped keep us on task and on track. Thank you!
To all of my colleagues at Quest Software go very big thanks for your support and encouragement. Christian Hasker, Andy Grant, Heather Eichman, David Gugick, Billy Bosworth, Douglas Chrystall, David Swanson, Jason Hall, Ariel Weil, and my many other friends at Quest Software: thank you for making these last six years with Quest Software such a blast.
Here’s a dedication to my loved ones, Dylan, Emily, Anna, and Katie. You were my hope and breath and light when it seemed that no hope or breath or light remained anywhere in the world. Thank you for loving me so completely and so selflessly. And finally, to Rachel, more precious than jewels and more valuable than rubies, your love has restored my heart and my faith.
