Editors of Dewey Decimal Classification

I am putting the list of editors of Dewey Decimal Classification starting from 1876 to present. The list is based on reply of my mail that is sent to deweyeds@oclc.org. Besides this, the editor of Edition 19 was also Benjamin A. Custer.  John P. Comaromi was editor of Edition 20.  Joan S. Mitchell is the editor of Edition 21, Edition 22, and Edition 23.
