Best songwriter in Pink Floyd

   One of the few prog groups in which every member gets a nice individual
credit on their songs ... allowing us to see the different songwriting
styles develop (a fair number of solo albums were to follow too) ...
but this poll is simply about who you think wrote the best material for
Pink Floyd ...

Despite my being a fan of everyone in the band ... there surely is only one obvious answer ... 

or is there?
