I nominate @D3vil0p3r.

@D3vil0p3r Is the creator and founder of Athena OS and Athena Nix (uses custom NixOS modules).

Athena OS has 2 flavor, a NixOS base or Arch Linux base (chosen at installation)
this new Linux distro is for cybersecurity enthusiasts and students, providing a quick way for new users to use a preconfigured environment with sane defaults.

The NixOS base to this day relies heavily on Nixpkgs.

He has continuously worked on improving the cybersecurity related packages and leading forks of unmaintained cybersecurity old tools (migrating them to from Python2 to Python3, etc.) in the Obsidian-Covenant.

Thus, updating and reintroducing deprecated packages with maintained/up-to-date dependencies and code in Nixpkgs to provide a similar set of pentesting packages as Kali Linux.
