Julian Assange's Work in Emacs

Julian Assange is also a emacs user. He wrote this package: http://quimby.gnus.org/s/change-windows-intuitively.el (local copy change-windows-intuitively.el).

Julian Assange's package indirectly have him credited in windmove.el and window.el, both are bundled in emacs.

;; Acknowledgments:
;;
;; Special thanks to Julian Assange (proff@iq.org), whose
;; change-windows-intuitively.el predates Windmove, and provided the
;; inspiration for it.  Kin Cho (kin@symmetrycomm.com) was the first
;; to suggest wrap-around behavior.  Thanks also to Gerd Moellmann
;; (gerd@gnu.org) for his comments and suggestions.
;; Predecessors to the below have been devised by Julian Assange in
;; change-windows-intuitively.el and Hovav Shacham in windmove.el.
;; Neither of these allow to selectively ignore specific windows
;; (windows whose `no-other-window' parameter is non-nil) as targets of
;; the movement.

Alt+x describe-function on windmove-left to get to file location of windmove.el. In the same directory, you'll find window.el.

This is the same Assange of wikileaks, because you can see that the email address proff@iq.org is also used elsewhere.
