A walk down memory lane

Before I joined Liferay I used to check up on Brian's work from time to time, hoping I could somehow be a part of this small piece of software called Liferay EP. As we're approaching our 9th year in development and our second annual Liferay retreat, I became a little reflective of the early days. Here's a sneak peak of Liferay EP 1.7.5 (October 10, 2002). Note that back then you had to use a full J2EE server with CMP. Even this early release is on JDK 1.4. What JDK are we compliant to now?

A whopping 16 MB download. Enjoy :).

I feel incredibly blessed to be a part of something very special now...
