## Testimonials

And now for some shameless self-glorification and name-dropping...

ProGuard is probably the most popular java shrinker, optimizer, and obfuscator world-wide. It is being used by developers at companies and organizations like IBM, HP, Siemens, Nokia, Google, and NATO. It is the default tool in many development environments like Oracle's Wireless Toolkit, Netbeans, EclipseME, Google's Android SDK, and more. Although the quotes below probably don't represent official views of any kind, encouragements like these do keep me happy.
