The maker of QModem has died. He worked at Wildcat! BBS (Mustang Software) for a time. I ran a multiline Wildcat BBS on DesqView and later OS/2 Warp for years. Today, my boss at Microsoft is the author of Wildcat BBS! Stay in this business long enough and you’ll meet tons of lovely and smart people.
