-## Other Backers
-
-Most of the success of the Kickstarter is thanks to these folks. Some of
-them spent significant amounts of money in the guise of getting some
-swag. For others, being listed here, and being crucial to making the 
-git-annex assistant happen was reward enough. Large or small, these
-contributions are, literally, my bread and butter this year.

-## Also thanks to
-
-* The Kickstarter team, who have unleashed much good on the world.
-* The Haskell developers, who toiled for 20 years in obscurity
-  before most of us noticed them, and on whose giant shoulders I now stand,
-  in awe of the view.
-* The Git developers, for obvious reasons.
-* All of git-annex's early adopters, who turned it from a personal
-  toy project into something much more, and showed me the interest was there.
-* Rsync.net, for providing me a free account so I can make sure git-annex
-  works well with it.
-* LeastAuthority.com, for providing me a free Tahoe-LAFS grid account,
-  so I can test git-annex with that, and back up the git-annex assistant
-  screencasts.
-* Anna and Mark, for the loan of the video camera; as well as the rest of
-  my family, for your support. Even when I couldn't explain what I was
-  working on.
-* The Hodges, for providing such a congenial place for me to live and work
-  on these first world problems, while you're off helping people in the
-  third world.
