Tony Davis has made a good point about adding some English references to the list of references for this proposal. Aside from that, I feel the proposal is well-written and covers all the pertinent material. It makes a strong case for this milestone, and I support it fully. We usually dont like to focus on one individual in establishing a milestone, but, in this case, this is necessary.- Heinrich Hertz is universally acknowledged to have been the first one to experimentally verify Maxwell's equations, demonstrating the equivalence of radio and light waves, and showing radio waves did travel at the speed of light.
