StrongHelp was originally written by Guttorm Vic.  Early versions were
released as freeware (without sources), but permission to redistribute
was purportedly withdrawn as of 10th March 1993 to allow StrongEd and
StrongHelp to become commercial products.  It became freeware again
circa 2nd November 1994.

Version 2.70 was released, with sources, on 1st April 1999.  This was
the final release by Guttorm.  He stated in a newsgroup posting [1] that
"If anyone fancies doing some more work on it they're free to do so".
In an announcement on his web site [2] he further stated that "I'm no
longer developing any of my products" ... "The sources are available
for anyone to pick up where I left off".

Jrme Mathevet took over as maintainer circa 21st November 1999 [3]
following which he oversaw the release of versions 2.71 and 2.72.
Christian Ludlam took over circa 17th June 2001 [4] and has since
overseen versions 2.74 onwards.
