As Bill Anderson and I work our way through the tenets and context of Trustworthy Computing, I want to develop a profile of the key players and their organizations.  This is partly to understand where the authorities on the subject are situated and what their relationships and influences are.  It is also to identify the community that we wish to consult and associate ourselves with.

This pages captures names of people and organizations as they come up in our readings/researches.
