<p>Hi, all,</p>
<p>We have an archive here at the Postel Center of Jon's notes. <br>
</p>
<p>Although I'm no handwriting expert, some of the early hand-drawn
ones do look like Jon's handwriting.</p>
<p>FWIW.</p>

famous hand-drawn first map is unclear. Many of us think it
was probably drawn by Jon Postel, but Jon had died before
the question of its origin became interesting to most
people. When Peter Salus was writing his book "Casting the
Net" he wanted to use that map, but his publisher insisted
on a signed release from the author. Peter approached me at
some conference and asked if I knew who the author was. I
suggested Jon, and Peter sighed because Jon had already died
and therefore it would be impossible to get a release from
him. So I offered to redraw the map from memory on the spot
and then sign a release to Peter. For that reason some
versions of the hand-drawn map are attributed to me.</span></div>
