How are you supposed to account for indirect introductions?  For example, I don't see 'Google' on the list, because that's how I discovered Topic Maps.  Only after that did I become acquainted with the writings of Steve Pepper, Steven Newcomb and Robert Barta, but I'd be hard pressed to remember at this stage which paper I read first. ;)

Still, it's an interesting idea, but I'm not sure it's really intended as the hard and fast record of Topic Maps history, is it? (per Steve Pepper's follow-up question)

Cheers,
