I'd add Bob Lyon who led the NFS team (and who later founded Legato along with Rusty, Joe Moran and Jon Kepecs -- all except Bob being UW alumni.) Bob came to Sun via PARC and brought with him a number of the ideas that Clem had referenced earlier in this thread about RPC, etc. Although he's on few papers his influence on defining and building NFS etc. was essential. Another important contributor was David Goldberg, for building the YP services that, while functionally separate, enabled the administrative and deployment environment that helped make NFS useful. David also wrote the floating-point paper in the appendix to the Hennessy-Patterson architecture textbook.
