The Netscape door
Recalled but not checked against any source. Treat everything here as a first draft awaiting correction.
Founder of NetDynamics, an early application server company sold to Netscape; later chief technology officer at Sun and founder of several further companies.
This entry is a stub. Jonathan Hare's note in the source archive reads, in full: someone should remind me to tell my Peter Yared stories.
Each entry below carries its own provenance — the source, and how it was processed. That is the condition on which this graph can be extended by anyone without degrading.
The trail exists so that people who were there can reconstruct their own memories, recognize what they helped incubate, and add to or correct the record — or forward the few pages that belong to someone they know.
Yared introduced Hare to everyone worth knowing at Netscape after selling NetDynamics to them. The stories themselves have not yet been recorded.
There is no single root. This is one view of the graph, from this node — what you see depends on where you enter and what you are looking for.
Everything above is a distillation. The primary source is published in full, so that any claim on this page can be walked back to what was actually said — and where the two differ, the source governs.
This entry is deliberately incomplete. The gaps below are the things only certain people can settle — and settling one is a contribution like any other: recorded, timestamped and attributed to whoever made it.
Correct anything wrong, add what only you know, or claim this entry as your own. Write to evidence@qpncatalyst.io and Jonathan directly (both are on the button) — a timestamped confirmation comes back with your submission attached, as your own independent record. No account, no permission, no institutional standing required.
Public contributions earn Publicity Premium; bringing others who were there earns Cascade Premium. Everything is valued retrospectively as outcomes verify, so nothing has to be priced up front.
