Jean Ichbiah - Ada 83
Tucker Taft - Ada 95
Jean Ichbiah started Ada 95, and walked off when they refused to accept that they needed to have Object.Method notations and so we had the dark years from 95-2005 of trying to convince ourselves, that leaving it out was not a retarded decision.....
As per a previous thread, not having Object.Method really hurt Ada at a time when it needed it, now it is an uphill battle to get application developers to look at it seriously again. IMO.
