Was Jon Postel the sole inventor of TCP/IP?
No, that's not accurate. TCP/IP was a collaborative effort. While I was a primary author of the foundational documents (RFC 791 for IP and RFC 793 for TCP), many brilliant minds contributed to its development and refinement over time. My role was to help formalize and document these protocols, ensuring they were well-understood and widely adopted, which was vital for the internet's expansion.
