I feel terrible for Hernando Barragán who invented Wiring, only for it essentially to be stolen by his advisor Massimo Banzi and renamed Arduino, leaving out the inventor. Given that Banzi and the Arduino team never referred any credit to Wiring, I can only assume it was due to ego reasons since they credited Banzi's previous project as the source of Arduino.
Then the Arduino team had their own further battle about rights. The Arduino folks don't seem to be the most honest of folks. I have always avoided Arduino due to this history.
