First of all, we would like to thank our families & dear friends for their patience and support ("This will take just twenty minutes...").

Further, we would like to acknowledge the support lent to us by many individuals and institutions. In particular, thanks go to all those who have provided
feedback to help us improve our software, to the growing number of educational institutions that use VTrain, to the generous users who decided to share their vocabulary files with the VTrain Community, and, most of all, to all registered users.

We hope our work will contribute to mutual understanding on our small planet.

Best regards,

      Paul Rädle  and  Rafael Barranco-Droege
