Unless it's been replaced, Robert Elz. Melbourne Uni wrote this. He's
still puttering along in Southern Thailand, doing his thing. (they had
the Australian dictionary of Aboriginal words and every host at
Melbourne Uni started MU hence munnari.oz.au) - The same operations
unit wrote one of the  first Apple File System codebases for BSD too.

Robert had a bizarre theory about body heat. He wore a jersey in
Hawaii mid-summer on the principle the insulation kept the external
heat OUT.

He also is a cricket tragic. B&W tv by the console, in season, you had
to stop talking while the bowler was running and could engage during
the advert breaks.

(and yes, I used them in uni systems admin to constrain the wild
behaviours of the userbase. Imagine letting all those pristine ones
and zeros be .. tainted by data)
