+<h2>About the Proof General project</h2>
+<p>
+The forefather of Proof General was LEGO mode, begun in 1994 at the <a
+href="http://www.lfcs.informatics.ed.ac.uk">LFCS</a> by Thomas Kleymann.  LEGO
+mode was an Emacs-based front end for LEGO similar to David Aspinall's
+<a href="http://www.proofgeneral.org/~isamode">Isamode</a>,
+developed at the LFCS since 1992.  After 1994, implementations of
+proof-by-pointing and script management were added to LEGO mode, and
+the code was made generic.  The generic basis was developed by
+Thomas Kleymann, Dilip Sequeira, Healfdene Goguen and David Aspinall.
+The current authors and maintainers of the various instantiations of
+Proof General are mentioned on the <?php link_root("main","front
+page.") ?>

+<p> 
+The Proof General project was coordinated until October 1998 by
+Thomas Kleymann, and since then by David Aspinall.  The project has
+benefited from funding by
