2 years ago, the first commit. Today is the second RoboDomain first-commit anniversary, the first since RoboDomain is publicly available.
This isn’t the real RoboDomain birthday, thought. RoboDomain was officially launched on December 15, 2009. Two years ago, I decided it was the time to stop using spreadsheets to manage my domains and start developing something more efficient.
The project didn’t immediately reached the top my priority queue. It slept for one more year before I forced myself to concentrate my efforts on one single project at time. That project was RoboDomain.
As of today, the main RoboDomain repository counts 1,339 commits with about 12,000 lines of code. There are also a few satellite projects created to power or extracted from RoboDomain, such as the Ruby Whois library.
RoboDomain was initially powered by Ruby 1.8.6, Rails 2.0.2 and tracked by SVN. Currently, the main application lives on Ruby 1.8.7 and Rails 2.3.5, while the entire codebase is now managed by Git and hosted on Github.
