If somebody is *serious* about the archeology of open-source projects, they'll have a bunch of boxes with cira-1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, etc. development tools installed. :) No, I haven't heard of anybody doing such work yet, but I could imagine that within the next 50 years some sociologist or historian or whatever might be digging through old mailist archives and tracking changes to git and whatnot. I've seen weirder PhD thesis projects.
