One of these guys is not like the others.
- philwelch 15y agoAll of those guys are not like the others!
- phillmv 15y agoOnly two of those people are even on the same order of magnitude of influence.
- masklinn 15y agoI'd say three, although the work of the third one (which I'd assert is Theo) is more obscure it's pretty darn critical and influential[0]. Unless the two you were thinking of are Linus and Theo? [0] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSH http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSSH
- phillmv 15y agoOh true that, I'd forgotten all about how SSH wasn't originally Free.
- spicyj 15y agoAssuming you're talking about Gruber: note that he is a programmer and invented Markdown: http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/ Not that that puts him on the same level as the others, but it is true (as the GP suggested) that his name is well-known here.
