So... one of the old timers (me) has woken from a long long nap...

I'm wondering, does a timeline of the history of tivo and tivohack still exist... back many years ago, there was a journal with some dates and chronology of the good, bad, and ugly of the early community... but I can't seem to find it in the archive, or online anymore.

It would be nice to find it and/or recreate it... that way us old timers can relive history, as well as catch up with the present. off the top of my head something along the lines of the following

Tivo Releases Series 1 Stand Alone
Tivo Releases 1.1.0 software
Tivo Releases 1.2.1 software
Original Disk upgrade discussions begin
Disk Blessing procedures are developed
first tivoweb is developed
Tivo Releases
TiVonet is developed
Tivo Releases 1.3.0 software
First automated blessing tool (BlessTivo) is released
First Tivoweb/tivoremote released
vplay

Other events (not in order):
MFSTool
Series 2 release
LBA48
"Dont Be a Moron" Thread #1
"Dont Be a Moron" Thread #2
"Dont Be a Moron" Thread #3

Tivolutionary Appears
Tivolutionary Leaves Tivo
TivoPony Appears
TivoOpsMgr Appears
???? Other tivo personalities appear
etc etc...


So does any of this still exist?

I think LBA48 can be centered around the launch of the HD-TiVo/DVD units.
Nobody around here really bothered until the 540 and the R10 was released, and most people never bothered on 1xx/2xx units until 7.2/7.x was released.

does a timeline of the history of tivo and tivohack still exist...Isn't this very much like searching for the history of Rome in New Jersey?
