  "In 1988, while employed by DEC, he started working on the popular

ISC has spent some effort on properly documenting the history of
BIND, and the result of that effort is located at:

http://www.isc.org/software/bind/history

You'll note there are two full paragraphs and a dozen folks involved
before Paul had anything to do with BIND.

One could make the case that the releases before Paul got there weren't
exactly popular - how many DNS servers were in production in 1986? ;)
