Thelop History

The Thelop development started in 1992 and it took about 2 years until the first library was available for internal use.

There was considerable refactoring in the years after. There was a second and a third generation. In about 1998 it became stable. New words and rules were invented all the time, but at a slowing rate and without changing the existing system.

In 2000 I started to describe my work experimentally at WardsWiki:LanguageOrientedProgramming. This was a wonderful experience and made me a wiki enthusiast. But it also robbed me of most of my time, because I became a wiki software developer.

In 2003 the wiki system has gotten quality to be effectively used as a tool to describe Thelop, to support a community - if someone is interested - and to produce a dictionary and a book without much effort at the same time.
