you did work on tetration and mentioned the people who helped you ( robert israel e.g. )
thus you dont claim all credit and contribute to the rarely known concept of tetration.
i dont see any reason to involve bauer or denis feldmann into the matter.
ps im working on tetration too.
might post it when its finished.
