Not sure what you mean by this, but the following were all created out
of thin air by IETF working groups consisting of multiple individuals:
IP, UDP, TCP, SMTP, SNMP, EGP, HTTP/1.1, FTP, IMAP
The following were primarily the work of one or two individuals at first
DNS, HTTP/0.9, NNTP, NTP, SSH
I'm not sure about POP.
A goodly number? I don't think so.
