Paul Rodman deserves recognition for volunteering his own time to develop and host the initial Washington Flora Checklist website on his own web server from 2001-2006 before the checklist was transferred to the WTU Herbarium in early 2007.

Ben Legler is the current web developer and programmer for the checklist.
