ISC has spent some effort on properly documenting the history of BIND, and the result of that effort is located at:
http://www.isc.org/software/bind/history
You'll note there are two full paragraphs and a dozen folks involved before Paul had anything to do with BIND.
One could make the case that the releases before Paul got there weren't exactly popular - how many DNS servers were in production in 1986? ;)
Please don't make me remember hosts.txt before I've had a chance to wrap up work, go home, and get some Scotch in...
