Listed at <a href="http://www.postgresql.org/community/contributors/" rel="nofollow">http://www.postgresql.org/community/contributors/</a> under "Past Contributors"<p>There is a whole section about his hacking achievements at <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Assange#Computer_programming_and_university_studies" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Assange#Computer_program...</a><p><pre><code> In 1993, Assange was involved in starting one of the first public internet service providers in Australia, Suburbia Public Access Network.[8][24] Starting in 1994, Assange lived in Melbourne as a programmer and a developer of free software.[22] In 1995, Assange wrote Strobe, the first free and open source port scanner.[25] [26] He contributed several patches to the PostgreSQL project in 1996.[27] He helped to write the book Underground: Tales of Hacking, Madness and Obsession on the Electronic Frontier (1997), which credits him as a researcher and reports his history with International Subversives.[28] Starting around 1997, he co-invented the Rubberhose deniable encryption system, a cryptographic concept made into a software package for Linux designed to provide plausible deniability against rubber-hose cryptanalysis;[29] he originally intended the system to be used "as a tool for human rights workers who needed to protect sensitive data in the field."[30] Other free software that he has authored or co-authored includes the Usenet caching software NNTPCache[31] and Surfraw, a command-line interface for web-based search engines. In 1999, Assange registered the domain leaks.org; "But", he says, "then I didn't do anything with it."[32] </code></pre> also used to admin the AES Mailing List (1998)<p><a href="http://cryptome.quintessenz.org/mirror/jya/aes-mail.htm" rel="nofollow">http://cryptome.quintessenz.org/mirror/jya/aes-mail.htm</a>

Maybe there should be a running list of where Assange has contributed to because all of these posts are superfluous and don't really have much substance.
