That contests that Raymond was an "architectural granddaddy of  
SourceForge", not that he invented Trove.  My understanding is that he  
did start the efforts to define the Trove classifiers as part of a  
larger effort that never panned out, but that defining the classifiers  
was not a solo effort.
