Urp... I did the original CFD in December of '91. It got voted down. Then someone in the UK created it anyway. Brian was around before the creation, and I'm fairly certain he saw it bantered around on alt.config. Lazlo Nibble also had some part in the ensuing discussion, although I can't remember if he was pro or con.
