"There are a lot of events in the history of software development. This is a list of dates that have some significance in either the stuff I work with or methodologies. I've compiled this list for my own benefit in thinking about my history and how these things have led to my current software philosophies. I'm publishing the list as a "what the heck, why not?" kinda thing. If I've gotten something wrong, feel free to contact me."

Early language and protocol entries include C, C++, SMTP, the World Wide Web, Python, Java, JavaScript, and PHP. Methodologies and practices include OOAD, Continuous Integration, Scrum, Extreme Programming, TDD, Lean and Six Sigma influences, and Acceptance Testing.
