Tinderbox / Eastgate has always been Mark Bernstein solo.  He has some office assistance.  Stacy Mason helped out with some literature for a while.  But the entire vision, development, implementation, workshops, helpdesk, and web support is Mark.  As a volunteer (a mega-volunteer, in truth) Mark Anderson contributes the enormous aTbRef that has documented every feature of every release from 2.0 thru 7.x

Eastgate is not an outlier.  All the best Windows and Mac software—the truly creative stuff—is usually fewer than three and often only a single developer.
