Most of the work was done on and for a Linux machine provided by the Laboratory of Acoustics and Audio Signal Processing of Helsinki University of Technology. The SGI port of the Sound Player was done in Niksula computer lab.
Jussi Hynninen wrote the Sound Player and the Test Logic code and documentation. Also by JH are the HTML/Webpage design and the nice little icons. Keijo Heljanko wrote the code and documents for Test Creation, the UIs (tester and testee), and the config. file parser. Jussi Rinta-Filppula was the project manager. He wrote project bureaucracy paperwork, the User Manuals, various system documents and the Results 'pulautin'. In addition to these specifics, all of us worked hard on the System Manual.

Our client's needs and such we changing all the time, and sometimes they themselves didn't know what they were. However, we must take part of the blame for not having enough persistence to dig out the information from our clients.
Selecting a system with no built in audio support for heavy acoustics work seems like a bad choice and the little support we had (the multisound driver) was pretty much an unsupported hack. Also, the system configuration was fixed by the clients even before the course started with little hope for change for the better.
And while I am at it, I would like to say that the wheather during the winter and spring was way too good for doing any work. I much rather went outside.
