The authors gratefully acknowledge the numerous people that have provided valuable resources and contributed their time and talents to make this
project possible. First we recognize the Committee for the Allocation of Telescope Time, CATT, for the San Pedro M´artir National Observatory for the
generous allocation of telescope time throughout the years. We acknowledge the skillful assistance of the telescope operators: Felipe Montalvo, Gabriel
García, Gustavo Melgoza and Salvador Monrroy and the whole technical staff of the Observatory that made possible to obtain data along 52 observing runs
(about 300 nights) with less than 0.5% down time due to technical failures. During the same runs we were only impeded to observe due to bad weather on
4 nights, so our thanks in this regard to whom it may concern up there. We thankfully recognize as well the Panel for Allocation of Telescope Time for the
Anglo-Australian telescope where we obtained 3 different observing runs for southern targets. The Manchester Echelle Spectrometer resides in San Pedro
Mártir (MES-SPM; Meaburn et al. 2003) thanks to a collaborative agreement between IA-UNAM and the University of Manchester. The participating members in this pro ject, including
students and postdocs, have benefited throughout the years from the generous financial support of DGAPA-UNAM through several PAPIIT pro jects as well as several CONACYT pro jects. Lastly, we are grateful to A. J. Clark for insightful discussions concerning the programming of the database.
