remember that what spawned all this was GML done by "G", "M", and "L" http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#sgml

at the science center
http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#545tech

and then both "G" and "L" transferred out to the west coast .... "L" working on system/r (original relational dbms at sjr) http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/subtopic.html#systemr

doing work on blobs in the r-star or star-burst time frame (i.e. system/r follow-ons).

didn't chorafas in "new information technologies" have a quote from somebody at sabre that relational set data management back 20 years.
