  • Carsten Dominik was in charge of the package from version 3.0, during which time he overhauled almost everything, modernized IDLWAVE with many new features, and developed the manual.
  • J.D. Smith, the current maintainer, as of version 4.10, helped shape object method completion and most new features introduced in versions 4.x, and introduced many new features for IDLWAVE versions 5.x and 6.x.
