I sent an email off to Bill Sawyer's last known address - last I knew he had
retired and moved to Arizona.

I sent an email off to BIll Casselberry, out there on the Oregon coast.
Hopefully his old email address is still valid.

Dear All,
While discussing the 20th anniversary PUG, we discussed with Brian that
it would be great to invite as many "old-timers" as possible - to
participate in this PUG.
I know that some PDMLers maintain connection with some of the former
PDMLers via social media (or at least know how to contact them).
I suggest that everybody who has any way of contacting them, would do
that ASAP (via all available channels), - inviting them to submit their
photos to this 20th anniversary PUG.
Please use this link:
http://pug.komkon.org/general/20th-anniversary.html
with the invitation for the anniversary PUG.

And now, after the break (some nerds might know the hidden message in
this song), some personal thoughts about old-timers.
I am sure people here remember past PDMLers, but I would try to recall at
least a few... (just in case it would help someone).
Over the period of 20 years, there have been several PUGmeisters:
Brian Walters
Scott Loveless
Adelheid von Kirschten
Jostein Oksne
William Robb
Mark Cassino
Steve Graham
Doug Brewer
AFAIK, Scott, Adelheid, and Steve are not reading PDML.
I believe that Scott is reachable via e-mail and some social media
channels (Facebook? Twitter), - I haven't heard about Steve and Adelheid
for ages. Has anybody seen them recently?
There were a few more people who at different time contributed to the
maintenance of PUG:
Rob Studdert, Jeff Renner, Bong Manayon, Maney Gomez, Fred Wasti, Robert
Batten, Alin Flaider, Tom Van Veen, Sid Barras, Delano Mireles, Flavio
Minelli, Gary L. Murphy, Michael Bromm, Yves Caudano, Jan van Wijk.
(Brian listed them here: http://pug.komkon.org/general/autosubmit.html )
I might be missing someone (my sincere apologies!), but from that list,
only Rob, Bong, and Jan seem to be participating in PDML and PUG.
I believe in the past year or two, I've seen some posts from Fred Wasti
on some forum (PF?) or in some social media, but I don't remember where,
and I couldn't find any "live" traces of him now.
I've already sent a personal e-mail to Boz Dimitrov on Saturday, but
haven't heard back, so, if someone can contact him as well, please do. (A
single unexpected e-mail can be easily lost in a flow of messages.)
Anybody else?
Cheers,
Igor
