There were two whom I recall -- Allison Parent and Megan Gentry.

Allison left during the Great Flame War which resulted in the cctech/cctalk
split.  A terrible loss to the list (IMHO) -- she knows a *lot* about CP/M
as well as design-level electronics.

I haven't seen a post from Megan in at least six months -- another huge
loss to the list, as she has a tremendous amount of knowledge of all
things DEC.

Sad.
