See www.vix.com. His best-known projects are maintaining BIND (Berkeley Internet
Name Daemon, a DNS server) and running the Mail Abuse Prevention System with
its RBL (Realtime Blackhole List), an effective spam defense.

A couple of the main designers of the Internet. A check at www.rfc-editor.org
shows the Cerf has written or co-authored a couple of dozen RFCs, going back
to 1981, and Mockapetris wrote all the basic DNS RFCs.

There's a Kim Hubbard among the authors of RFC 2050 or BCP 12:
ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/bcp/bcp12.txt
Address given, as of 1996, is at Network Solutions.

I don't know. An RFC author search does not turn them up.
