Sam Ruby commented on WHIMSY-63:
--------------------------------
I've added the low-level supporting method that the code that produces the JSON
results can use:
https://github.com/apache/whimsy/commit/acbc1356d8a1372fd0693ead68431732966ec9b0
> Provide a feed of account creation dates with corrected data

> As discussed on INFRA-12008, the earliest {{createTimestamp}} in LDAP is
> 20090519, which corresponds with when the full LDAP import happened. This is
> problematic for things like the {{projects.a.o}} timeline +
> {{accounts-evolution.json}} data, and for the ComDev locations map over time.
> As Infra feel that maintaining the corrected creation date in LDAP isn't a
> core need, and it would be very painful to fix the current data, we should
> instead have Whimsy publish a fixed list. This would read the
> {{createTimestamp}} from ldap, and apply a correction for most (but not all)
> 2004-2009 accounts based on account creation notices. (We can potentially
> extend it later for pre-2004 accounts too)
