Many of the early software innovators names are known. Who was the team behind the 8086? Superficial googling gives all credit to "Intel" never listing any individuals who designed this thing.
The Computer History Museum has some oral histories from folks who worked in this era. They don't have the 8086 design team, but they have different panels featuring people from the 8080, Z80, and 680x0 design teams. (Some from an 8086 marketing team too)
