Thanks to many individuals for all their help and encouragement over the years with JoniMitchell.com. Primarily, hats off to Wally Breese and Jim Johanson for starting it all.

Les' credits:

First, a special thanks goes out to Raffaele Malanga for all the work he has done on the both the JM.com site and the JMDL site over the years. All the graphics, design, and flash were done by him, at no cost whatsoever. One of the best web designers in the business! Visit his website at Far Studios. This website was a joint venture between Far Studios and Front Range Digital Media.

Thanks also to Jamie Zubairi for a superb effort on the artwork section, Frank Garwood for his connections, and Bryan Taulbee for his writing and editing skills.

Thanks to the following who've also contributed to JoniMitchell.com since I took over in late 2005: Pino D'Amico, Rachel Avery, Dean French, Sylvia Greybe, Laura Koopman, Kathy Johnson, Patrick Leader, Joey McGowan, Norma Meatheringham, Susan J. Michael, Andreas Mueller, Jerry Notaro, Andrew Ritchie, Lisa Sampson, Josh Shurr, Jenna Talia, Ley Thompson, Mark-Leon Thorne, Lesli Watts, and Barry Wilson.


Jim Johanson's credits:

Anything I say about what JoniMitchell.com creator Wally Breese did to bring Joni's Internet Community together strikes me as inadequate. His efforts have earned him a special place in the hearts of many, and this site will always be dedicated to his memory. I'll keep his list of credits intact:

"My thanks always to Jim Johanson (hey, that's me!) for his friendship and his light-handed editing skills. (Let's hope he'd still say that now.) Thanks to Jim "Mr. Tunings" Leahy for keeping me up to date on info from north of the border; to Susan McNamara, who's the official lyric lady; to Julie Larson for understanding the meaning of fairness; to David Rind for his always swift responses; to Les Irvin for the mailing list; to simon for his encouragement; and to Danny O'Toole for his occasional typing chores."

In addition, I'd like to add special thanks to all who support me with the ongoing care and feeding of JoniMitchell.com. I'll single out a few, with apologies to the army of people I'm sure to miss as I write this: Leslie Mixon for her vigilance and ongoing help with pretty much anything that comes up; simon for his carefully collected information; Brian Sizelove for his generosity and expertise; Ashara Stansfield for her fundraising talents; Andrew Ritchie, my Canadian Connection; Jim L'Hommedieu and Rose Joy for their updates to the Internet Community; CC for inspiration, info, and fun; Kate Tarasenko for her support. And what would I do without Andrew Clark? I don't even want to think about it.

Sincere thanks also to all who have helped out as photographers and reporters for the site.

Finally, special appreciation goes out to those of you who have made generous donations to keep the site up and running. I couldn't keep this going without you!
