Amazing that it has been more than nine years since the original release (Jan 14, 2006)!

How long did it take for John to write this initial version? Any idea?

I don't have exact records but based upon what I was inspired by, and what else I was working on at the time, it roughly equates to the fall of 2005. I was in college at the time and taking classes so I was working on it on-and-off as my schedule allowed. I finished it up over winter break and went with some friends to BarCamp NYC 2006 and released it there.

Thanks John, always good to hear straight from the horse's mouth!
