Happy Birthday MindForge !!! On this second birthday anniversary, let us drink to celebrate ... 
| While we let the second anniversary of this network go by without a party ... we haven't forgotten. We must be either overworked, inconsiderate, or (most likely) on vacation !
Since the official kick off on the 15th of March, 2005 ... it's been two solid years of continuous network online presence, consolidation, and slight expansion (except for a few ddos attacks and careless network kills by overwrought Administrators). | The exact date of the birth of MindForge is somewhere between December 2004 and April 2005 ... as the question arises about when an IRC network begins to exist. Is it when a few founders get together and imagine the project ... or is it when the first Users are invited .. or, more technically, ... when a DNS is changed over ... ?
The origins of MindForge on a few key dates:
For simplicity, we will stick with March 15th, but if anyone has any other precisions to bring to this issue they are welcome to post it on the forum.
While the ambitious MindForge objectives for harboring many Open Source projects haven't quite been met yet, we are still confident that this will occur in due time. MindForge, in addition to its specialty as a quality P2P help network, has the great potential for being a serious "working" network ... and we are still working to that effect, hoping that all regular Users will support us in this endeavour.  | A new feature still needing fine tuning is the #Class concept, where intense noob training is programmed to bring P2P User help up to "working network" standards. The challenge is daunting but worthwhile ! More on this "geek" feature soon.
... after the party, we will nurse our headaches to move forever forward down the road of collective IRC network life ... |
With all our thanks for a positive 2 years online ... let's keep it going! Your MindForge Team
