Eggheads.org - Main Index

Description

The domain name Eggheads.org was registered in December 1998 as a Christmas present from Brian "SLipmat" McGowan for myself (Jeff Fisher) and #eggdrop@undernet. In the beginning, the domain served as the home for the official web site of #eggdrop@undernet; however, in the early part of 1999 this all changed. It was announced that Beldin's Eggdrop development group would cease development on Eggdrop after the release of v1.3.23, and focus their work on the now defunct Eggdrop2 (this was an intended rewrite in C++).

With growing concerns from the Eggdrop community and an ever mounting pile of unofficial patches for Eggdrop v1.3.23, it was decided that a small group of people would release their own independent version to incorporate these patches. The release was named Eggdrop v1.3.24i (where "i" stood for independent), and it came under a lot of criticism from the old development group; however, a large majority of the community fully accepted this release as an official Eggdrop version.

As more bugs were discovered and fixed, the need for another release was soon realized and work began on v1.3.25i; however, the community felt it was appropriate to drop the "i" and begin releasing official _new_ versions of Eggdrop.
