In the absence, so far as I know, of any other suitable
newsgroup to enquire from, perhaps someone involved in C
could help me out with a couple of email addresses.
I'm looking into the historical and linguistic origins of C
and would like to contact two people who were very much
involved in this, Martin Richards of Cambridge University,
England, author of BCPL from which B, then C were developed,
and Denis Ritchie of AT&T who, as we all know, developed C
itself. If anyone, including Richards and Ritchie themselves,
can help, I'd be glad to hear from them.
