Although the code is all my own, when accessing the Sudden Motion Sensor I used techniques discovered by a number of people:

• Amit Singh (see http://www.kernelthread.com/software/ams)
• Pall Thayer (see http://pallit.lhi.is/palli/dashlevel)
• Randy Green (see http://www.slappingturtle.com/home)

Thanks also to the people who have written. Thanks especially to those who have given clear and informative bug reports: you made improving SeisMac and SeisMaCalibrate a lot easier.
