Since some people do not like reading pages worth of minor news to get an idea of how things went, the next few lines outline some of the more and less relevant moments of MoonlightTorrent's history...
- 2003-11-15: Started working on the .torrent file loader and putting together the project's outline.
- 2003-11-21: Got my first client lists from trackers.
- 2003-11-25: First major memory leak outbreak - started working on the GUI and getting connections from clients. I much later found out that most of the 'memory leaks' were caused by improper use of heap allocation tracking.
- 2003-11-29: The general GUI layout is done and has not changed much since.
- 2003-12-04: MT started generating real traffic - accept-only.
- 2003-12-10: First serious winter cold, pretty much nothing was done for about a week.
- 2003-12-17: First upload-capable build!
- 2003-12-22: First 'veryprealpha' release, MT is finally able to transfer stuff both ways - first download-capable build!
- 2003-12-23: Registered MoonlightTorrent.com
- 2003-12-30: First time I thought that was it for 2003 with veryprealpha5, then I had to pull it and post veryprealpha5v2.
- 2004-01-02: First 2004 build: 0.1.0.0-alpha1.
- 2004-01-18: First minor update turned major overhaul, goodbye 0.1.0.0, hello 0.1.0.1-alpha1.
- 2004-02-15: MoonlightTorrent is now three whole months old and conveniently enough, 0.1.0.1-alpha2 is out for the occasion.
- 2004-04-17: A bit over five months old now, 0.1.0.1-alpha3 is there and the pages are undergoing a spring refresh.
- 2004-04-25: MoonlightTorrent Forums (yet another Invision PowerBoard) is open for a test-run.
- 2005-03-09: MoonlightTorrent 0.2.0.0 development started - simpler to rewrite than fix given the number of obscure bugs that appeared.
- 2005-05-xx: First public MT0200 build
