List on Designers and Sets Built by Them

[Megamech]

After stumbling upon Markus Kossman's video on 8275 I started to wonder about other sets designed by him and upon quick search found this page with an old and incomplete list: https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/50706-the-existential-pleasures-of-building-to-a-plan/&do=findComment&comment=900897

Is there a newer and more complete list somewhere  that I couldn't find? If not, why don't we make one ?

Based on the above link and multiple other sources like forums and designer workshop videos I've compiled several lists on brickset. Feedback from grohl was that not even the designers know who designed every LEGO Technic set, so I have little hope we will ever find out who designed the older sets, but I am hoping the community might be able to help gather the missing info. You can view them here:

Apparently 42028 is designed by Milan instead of Markus.

A was Markus. B was Milan.

Jeroen Ottens might know who worked on certain models during the 90's. And I know which designers worked on most models from 2004 - 2010 in a period that I worked there myself. Most of these are however already known as shown in the lists above. In many cases models are also developed as a team effort, meaning that more designers were involved during development. That's why lists are inconsistent or that models are under multiple designers.  However there should be a lead designer on each model. Then the website Techlug is probably most accurate.

According to TLG, 8283 (Telehandler, 2006) was a team effort, with several designers all contributing to it. However, when I asked David Bird, who also designed for the Technic department in that timeframe, he told me it was Alfred Pedersen who designed 8283.

If that is the case, then was Alfred the lead designer for that set, and who else added to it?

Yes, we know any set is a team effort, that's why I am happy to mention all involved designers in my bricklists. I also checked Techlug as can be seen in the comments for source material. If you have any further set info, please let me know and I can add it on brickset. It's a "living document" so let us gather everything we can. Does anyone have a close connection to Kossi for example?
P.S. I added a list with Technic sets designed by you. Let me know if it's missing something. https://brickset.com/sets/list-41674
