I was involved early with SVG. I was the Javascript test engineer at Adobe for their plugin, and I sat in on some of the working group meetings. When I left I found the marketing department had been raiding my tests for marketing content, so I contracted back to them and built a couple cool demos for adobe.com/svg.
Years later I was interviewing and my interviewer asked me a lot of questions about one example in particular. It turns out he had run across an example and it was exactly what they wanted for their project, but they didn't understand the math. He had tried to find me with no luck, going so far as to call Adobe and find my coordinator who refused to give out my name.
I opened the sample for him (it was still up), clicked on View Source and pointed to the first line that said "Author: [My fairly unique name]". His response was "DAMN IT! It was that easy?!?!?!"
