How does an article like this not mention Bill Joy??

Bram is a glaring omission in the vi family tree, too. Though, they'd have to draw the line somewhere (i.e. include nvim creator?) and maybe it's better leave individual people out.
The article focuses on the variants, not their authors. Joy, Bram, Perens (Busybox) are all omitted. At least the exclusion is nonbiased.
