Point well taken. I've always had trouble with these fence-post problems.
Thanks to all of you for your support.

You know how these semanticists are, after all: picky, picky, picky!

Friends,
It is with great excitement that I am writing to let you know that
Protégé is about to enter its second decade. It was during July,
1987, when I was a Ph.D. student at Stanford University, that the very
first incarnation of the Protégé system was completed and when it was
run for the first time. Implemented in Interlisp-D on a Xerox 1186
workstation, the first version of the system, which we called PROTÉGÉ
enabled us to build an ontology of a cancer clinical trial, acquire
instances of that ontology, and run the clinical-trial knowledge base
on a special using the ONCOCIN technology that Samson Tu had been
working on at the time.
This summer is going to be great experience for Protégé numerologists.
We will be marking the 20th anniversary of the first Protégé system.
We will be hosting the tenth annual International Protégé Conference
(see http://protege.stanford.edu/conference/2007/). And we will mark
the 75,000th registered Protégé user!
These are very exciting times as we look back over the past two
decades of Protégé development and think forward to the new
architecture for Protégé version 4.0.
The 10th International Protégé Conference takes place July 1518,
2007, in magnificent Budapest. You can register for the conference
directly at our Web site: http://protege.stanford.edu/conference/2007/
Please plan on joining the entire Protégé development team, our
die-hard user community, and lots of friends and fellow users who are
interested in Protégé, in ontologies, and in semantic technology
generally.
See you in Budapest for the celebration!
Mark
