I'm pretty sure the person pictured at right is Chris T. Johnson, as I worked very closely with him for about four years on BRL-CAD projects.

Nope, the person is Earl Weaver. Though I'm pretty darn sure that is not an M1 up on the screen. -- Christopher T. Johnson (above referenced) 192.18.128.5 (talk) 19:14, 18 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

brlcad author

Whoever edits as brlcad has edited this article as well as the brl-cad article.

Well, if he is, indeed, the main developer on the current BRL-CAD project, it's not surprising that he'd edit the BRL-CAD page. He might have known Mike, or known him indirectly through his work on BRL-CAD, so it's not entirely surprising that he'd edit this page as well. Guy Harris 00:42, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that's Christopher Sean Morrison^[1], current BRL-CAD maintainer. The BRL-CAD package has changed hands a few times (it's on SourceForge^[2] now, but was not when Mike worked on it for the Army Research Lab). --Adam 07:55, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is since he added his name to his user page: User:brlcad. Family Guy Guy (talk) 15:13, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Another photo (head shot)?

It seems to me that this article ought to have a photo showing Mike Muuss's face (not the back of his head). I found what seems to be a suitable photo of him here. I think this photo should be free (see Wikipedia:Public domain#U.S. government works), since it's on a US government web site (Mike's work web page, preserved as a memorial) and there is no trace of any copyright notice. Even if it is copyrighted, I think it could probably qualify as fair use,since the subject is dead. Comments? Richwales (talk · contribs) 21:23, 10 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Early UseNet Post By Mike Muuss Re: Ping

This is an interesting post from 1987 by Mike Muuss discussing ping in mod.protocols.tcp-ip : I added it to external links, and I'm posting it here for posterity. If anyone can find an earlier post, please feel free to change it :-)

I am sure there are earlier ones discussing its usage origin and history, this is just one that stood out by the original author. And he gives credit to the other 'giants' at BBN.
