I attempt to produce a profile of the author, mostly from the internal evidence, in a recent post here:

All of it is conjecture, but that is the nature of profiling.
I argue that profiling should be a central exercise in these studies.
We don't know who the author is, but we can say certain things about him that narrows it down. (We have a large sample of his work to help us, after all, namely the Voynich ms.)
The name I throw into the ring is Bartolomeo Bayguera. I haven't seen his name suggested before. He was a small-time humanist notary who worked for the Bishopric of Brescia for most of his life.
