ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The development of UK DCP software has been based upon the responses received to a questionnaire distributed to the members of the International Focus Group (IFG). We are extremely grateful to those who took the time to complete the questionnaire and return it to us. We are also grateful to Yogita Maini of DFID, Phil Page-Green of CSIR, South Africa, and Dr Simon Gillett of Roughton International who reviewed the project and provided useful feedback. The TRL team responsible for analysing the questionnaires, designing the software, writing the user manual and making UK DCP 3.1 available were Piouslin Samuel, Colin Jones, Simon Done, Dr John Rolt, Dave Weston and Trevor Bradbury. Dr Stephen Morris and his team from Tessella Support Service wrote this software.
