Subject: Date of first Cygwin release / 25th Anniversary
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2020 14:32:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAC4i1z1DXanQn6=mQ1C68DxjkcpBfvs7-EG1NRz=JMjK7+Zc5Q@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Cygwin started in 1995. [1] Does anybody know the date of the first
release? I recognize that there may be no definitive answer, depending on
how one defines "release."

In any case, happy 25th anniversary, Cygwin! Thanks to everybody who made
it and continues to make it possible.

-David
