 In 1991, Dave Hieb and Jeff Nieusma wrote a new version of sudo with an
 enhanced sudoers format under contract to a consulting firm called "The Root
 Group". This version was later released under the GNU public license.

 In 2003, Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company contributed code written by

 support for including multiple sudoers files.

 In 2010, Quest Software began sponsoring Sudo development by hiring Todd to
