*> *> There was a substantial discussion on the Internet-History mailing list *> (internet-history@xxxxxxxxxx) of which date was the correct one for the *> creation of TCPv4/IPv4, earlier this year (at the end of March, if anyone's *> looking in the mailing-list archive). I don't know if we followed through *> looking in the minutes of early Internet Working Group meetings to determine *> exactly which one it was, but it seemed to have been at one in the fall of *> '77. FWIW, IEN's 40 and 41 (the first publication of the TCPv4/IPv4 spec) *> date from June of 1978. *> *> So we're pretty close to 30 years for TCPv4/IPv4 itself... *> *> Noel *> I believe that the birth date for the Internet (protocols) was Jan 1, 1983, when the ARPAnet cut over from NCP to TCP/IP.
