In 2000 was not even on the drawing board :-) Actually first time I discussed about sip proxies and the remote possibility of writing a very simple one, was during the 2001 CeBIT, with Dorgham. First commit (commit 512dcd98 on git -- we have the whole history), was on Mon Sep 3 21:27:11 2001. It didn't include the Makefile. Files that still exists are: dprint.[ch], main.c, msg_parser.[ch], route.[ch]. There are still 60 lines that are unchanged from the first commit, but they are comments and includes :-) The first working version (at least according to the commit logs) was next day, on Sep 4 2001. The initial config version looked like: # method_re sip_uri_re dest_host # (warning: re cannot contain space) ^R.* ^sip:.*@dorian.* ekina.fokus.gmd.de ^INVITE .* ape:5061 # my laptop . . 192.168.46.55 2 weeks later I added the routing language and in October 2001 we already had something quite close to what we have today. Then it was the module interface, the print and textops modules and shared memory support. In the following month Bogdan, Jan and Jiri joined the development and in December 2001 we had tm. In the beginning of 2002 Daniel joined and Jan introduced mysql, usrloc and auth. The first "real" public appearance was at the April 2002 Sipit, where we really rocked (we were able to outpace the performance testing tools run against us, while running on a PDA). ser was GPL-ed in September 2002 and in the same month we had the first public release: ser 0.8.8. In December 2002 we had the first externally contributed (meaning not written by one of the original team) module: Juha's enum. Andrei
