_{The one that caught my eye was "Fabrice Evangelista, quantitative arbitrage at BNP Paribas" big banks wanting in as many have suspected.}

The most noteable to me was the WilmerHale lawyer.  if you take a look at the list of their representative clients, some interesting ones pop up (http://www.wilmerhale.com/about/representativeclients/)

some noteable ones were, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley and other places of the sort.
