To: Shlomi Fish <shlo...@gmail.com> Thanks, that's probably the list I had in mind. I though there was another list, of technologies developed in Israel (e.g. Intel Pentium etc). BTW - I guess my "fdlink" project (https://github.com/amosshapira/fdlink) also qualifies for that list, though it's main purpose as of today is probably as the historical basis for "frelink".
