	Bill Schelter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		William Frederick Schelter (died July 30, 2001) was a professor of mathematics at the University of Texas at Austin and a Lisp developer and programmer.
		Schelter is credited with the development of GNU Common Lisp (gcl) implementation of Common Lisp and the GPL'd version of the computer algebra system Macsyma called GNU Maxima.
		He is also credited with the first port of the GNU C compiler to the INTEL 386 architecture, used in the original implementation of the Linux kernel [1].

	Maxima (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Maxima is based on Macsyma, which was developed at MIT with funding from the United States Department of Energy.
		A version of Macsyma was maintained by Bill Schelter from 1982 until his death in 2001.
		In 1998 Schelter obtained permission from the Department of Energy to release his version under the GPL.

	[Maxima] GCL and Bill Schelter (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		In the readme file Bill comments that the last version distributed under the old license was akcl-1-624 which was, in fact, the last version that Scratchpad used.
		Bill was extremely sensitive to licensing issues and we had numerous discussions on the subject.
		We favored Bill's AKCL because (a) Bill could help us port it to many platforms (I wanted Scratchpad to run on everything, including DOS) and (b) Bill was very receptive to helping us optimize Scratchpad as he was also a user and contributor.

	Math professor remembered as computer savvy, humble - The Daily Texan - University
		Michael Artin, an applied mathematics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, was a close friend of Schelter and studied different aspects of abstract algebra and computer technology with him for over 20 years.
		Schelter's leadership, guidance and dedication to his field were invaluable to his colleagues and many will find it difficult to accept his death, added de la Llave.
		Schelter is survived by his two children Karen Lewis and John Schelter; son--in--law Mike Lewis; a grandson Joshua Lewis.

		Mike, The AKCL tarballs are a non-issue as I believe it can be shown that Bill rewrote the KCL portion of the system.
		The copyright for GCL would follow Bill's estate so his son, who I've spoken to in the past, is the likely holder-of-record for the copyright.
		It is entirely possible that the portions of Emacs that exist in GCL were authored by Bill.
