Was that the real start of the project or the date when the first working piece of code was finished?

Anyways, congrats to all you guys who have been working on this so hard! :D

It’s the day he issued the “New File…” command in XCode.

Depends! I prefer medjool, which I believe translates as unknown.
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

It is the best we have. Let someone come up with a better date.

BTW my feeling is that slight development is ongoinf, and expansion development is picking up. There is some perspective. It is one thing to start an open source project. I is quite another to accumulate enough power to have it going for 20+ years.

Happy birthday Oolite!
