    Hi,

    I always liked Paul Tarau. Just like Hakan,
    his academic papers showed also superior
    Prolog and other programming languges mastery.

    In the past, to my knowledge, he has influenced
    SWI-Prolog, by his answer engines, but he
    probably also inspired a wider community

    when going paths that trancend the WAM. He
    had a long standing in logic programming.
    If counted in decades and starting

    from 70's Colmerauer, he probably entered
    logic programming more visibly 2 generations
    later in the 90's with BinProlog spanning

    3-4 generations measured in decades.

    Bye
