Authors ======= The **mangos server project** is the work of many awesome people, and contributors from all over the world, and is the result of quite a few predecessors. This files contains all the projects and people involved in the project and its' creation. History ------- The roots of *mangos* date back to 2004, many developers were anxious to get a working server for the [World of Warcraft][1] beta running at that time. Various projects such as *TeamPython*, *Wow Python* and *WoWd* produced GPL'd server code, and furthered the development of a few [World of Warcraft][1] servers for the community. * **2004**: *TeamPython*, *Wow Python* and *WoWd* develop the predecessors for *mangos*. * **2005**: the *MaNGOS project* - an abbreviation for *Massive Network Game Object Server* - was founded. The first project website was located at http://www.mangosproject.org/ and a couple of other addresses, which are all defunct now.
The Source code was released on [SourceForge][2] using Subversion, and old versions are kept there for archival to this day. More recent versions of the older server code are archived at [Mangos Archives][5]. * **2008**: the *MaNGOS project* grew in terms of users and developers, and relocated to [github][3]. With the move, the project website changed to [getmangos.eu][4].
