Happy Birthday Drupal, you are eight

Amazon - January 15, 2009 - 18:59

Drupal 8th BirthdayEight years ago today Drupal 1.0.0 was released. It's been a big year for Drupal, another big release with Drupal 6, a lot of awards, and a lot of recognition. The project has had some notable departures, promotions, and the addition of many great contributors and users. Happy Birthday to the Drupal project and its amazing community.

Congratulations from Germany

And the maturity does show in the code. I love the D6 and how we are approaching the D7 version of the software.

Happy Birthday

BioALIEN - January 21, 2009 - 02:23

The great thing is, D7 is taking its time to fully mature before release. The sad thing is, I wish we were at D8 so we can all celebrate birthdays easier ;)

Great job to all involved. Up up and away!

I've never sung happy birthday to a piece of software before, but you deserve it and more. Without Drupal, I'd have dropped out of website building and perhaps the IT industry altogether three years ago.

So, come on over to my place for some cake and ice cream. I'll hire a clown and everything!

saltcod - January 16, 2009 - 12:26

A CALL:

I'd love to see some of the founders (or Dries) write a short post on Drupal's history and development. Where did the ideas come from? Where did the node thing arise? Multi-blog site abilities......etc......

Lets have some "this is where Drupal came from" discussion.

Thanks!

Drupal Birthday Poem

mrbert - January 16, 2009 - 12:29

You've made me smile when no one was there to
You made me laugh when I didn't want to
You gave me what money could not buy
You gave me light when I was in my darkest

You've made me know that it doesn't cost a thing to have the best in the world

That's why on your special day I'm happy to be around to say

Happy Birthday

coreyp_1 - January 16, 2009 - 15:42

So, is there any chance of us mortals ever being able to try out "historical" versions of Drupal... if only for fun?

The earliest I could find is 4.5.0.

- Corey

Drupal 3.0

tom_o_t - January 16, 2009 - 15:53

Happy birthday!

I found this link with a working link to the Drupal 3.0 download: http://web.archive.org/web/20011214140315/www.drop.org/node.php?id=411 in a discussion of Drupal 1.0 (http://drupal.org/node/216092)

We aim towards easy installation, excessive configuration and fine-grained maintenance capabilities.

I'd love to find Drupal 1.0 somewhere...

CVS

gpk - January 16, 2009 - 18:17

CVS http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/drupal/ seems to go back to May 18, 2000, but the first tagged release appears to be 3.0.0. If you have a CVS client and can figure out the dates/revisions from CHANGELOG.txt you might be able to reconstruct any version. This is a great timeline: http://drupal.org/files/issues/Drupal%20Release%20Timeline.png

David_Rothstein - January 18, 2009 - 19:03

Here is the tarball from May 18, 2000 (actually this is well before Drupal 1.0 was released):
http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/drupal/drop.tar.gz?revision=1.1.1...

I found the link to it in this forum post:
http://drupal.org/node/316576

Be careful, though -- the tarball unpacks all its files in the current working directory, so you might want to create a temporary folder for it and move the tarball there before unpacking it.

wow! I gotta take a look!
