This is the third generation of the Auroville website.

We acknowledge here for the work on this site -as well as on the township itself- all those Aurovilians before us, - and all of them yet to come..

In particular we thank:

illustrator Emanuele for his cartoons and illustrations;

Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Auroville Archives and Auroville Today for the generous sharing of their materials;

Alan and Carel for occasional advice,

Tim for proofreading and augmenting many of the pages, and writing the answers to the FAQs;

Ashaman, Jesse and Julietta for their freely given time and articles,
- and of course, we thank ALL Aurovilians who so sweetly supplied us with their material.
