* Restore lost Stepmania Team credits
Back in 2009, an overhaul was made to the theme to replace the credits
screen. That new screen had a short list of credits, along with a note to
"remake this list". That never happened, and over time, the original credits
list was lost in the shuffle. People that worked on Stepmania in the past,
who felt their contributions were enough to warrant credit, should still
get credit.
This list was pulled directly from the git history under hash
fb1165e6be
It could probably be cleaned up a bit. (For instance, the theme has been
completely redone. Should we still include the Graphics and Theme sections?
Also, the web section. And the thanks section? Those are pretty much just
shoutouts.)
* Name change. Deal with it >8)
* Change encoding of restored credits to utf-8
The list used "fancy" quotes. I should have saved this at utf-8 to
begin with.

Installation
From Packages
For those that do not wish to compile the game on their own and use a binary right away, be aware of the following issues:
- Windows users are expected to have installed the Microsoft Visual C++ x86 Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 prior to running the game. For those on a 64-bit operating system, grab the x64 redistributable as well. DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010) is also required. Windows 7 is the minimum supported version.
- Mac OS X users need to have Mac OS X 10.6.8 or higher to run StepMania.
- Linux users should receive all they need from the package manager of their choice.
From Source
StepMania can be compiled using CMake. More information about using CMake can be found in both the Build directory and CMake's documentation.
