Thanks to Burninator for writing the core of the JPCTB client. Ian
Jackson and Owen Dunn adapted it to improve the installation setup (in
-particular, to more completely avoid modifying the YPP client's
-startup files, which Three Rings unsurprisingly objected to). Owen
-Dunn added support for uploading to YARRG, updated the build system,
-and wrote a Windows installer.
