Help us celebrate! Twenty years ago, on October 31, 2000, the OpenAFS project was created by a small group of individuals at Carnegie Mellon University, with its corpus owing to the generosity of IBM. In their release, IBM cast forth a largely complete version of its AFS 3.6 source tree under the IBM public license.
In the two decades until now, many a developer contributed to the project’s success and relevance. We would like to thank any and all contributors, and we hope that OpenAFS will flourish for many years to come! Here a copy of the original IBM announcement: “To: AFS Community From: Laura Stentz Subject: OpenAFS Source Code Date: October 31, 2000 I am very pleased to inform you that the OpenAFS source code is now available on the IBM DeveloperWorks Web site in the Open Source Zone! (Please see: http://oss.software.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/afs for instructions on downloading the code.) We realize that many of you have been anxiously awaiting the release of the code, and we look forward to your contributions to OpenAFS! Thanks to all of my IBM colleagues for their hard work making OpenAFS a reality! Happy Halloween! Laura” Happy Halloween, indeed! With best wishes, Margarete Ziemer on the behalf of the Board of Directors of The OpenAFS Foundation, Inc. _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
