We thank Mauro Moretti for fruitful discussions of the ALPHA
algorithm [4], that inspired our solution of the double
counting problem.
We thank Wolfgang Kilian for providing the WHIZARD environment that
turns our numbers into real events with unit weight. Thanks to the
ECFA/DESY workshops and their participants for providing a showcase.

Finally, thanks to the Caml and Objective Caml teams at INRIA for the
lean and mean implementation of a programming language that does not
insult the programmer's intelligence.
