Special Mentions

A Special Thank you to Joan Martin who formely worked at http://www.sweetwilliamsl.com and has recently been developing an app for http://www.citizen.tv. He had the original idea and implemented code for generic view deployment/undeployment and replacement of view controllers used in the class.

Early code and api was inspired on a similar class by Philip Kluz (Philip.Kluz@zuui.org)
