The History of Debian

Before Debian there was Softlanding Linux.
August 16, 1993, Ian Murdock's announcement that started it all.
January 1994, Ian releases the Debian Manifesto.
April 1, 1994, Ian was struggling to keep up with it all and needed a break.
March 1996, Ian steps down as Debian Project Leader. Leaving Bruce Perens to take up the job.
The FSF pulls sponsorship but later the FSF "resumed cordial relations".
June 17, 1996, Debian 1.1 is released with the first ever codename based on Toy Story characters. It was named Buzz, after Buzz Lightyear. A list of all the Debian releases.
February 1, 1997, A board of directors had been elected for Software in the Public Interest.
February 20, 1997, Debian shows its intent to ratify a constitution.
July 1, 1997, Debian is really launched into space this time to monitor plant growth in microgravity, sending video and other data back home.
December 2, 1998, Debian ratifies a Constitution.
At the beginning of 1999, Wichert Akkerman was elected Debian Project Leader and started with giving Debian a permanent identity.
Logo on debian.org as of April 14, 1997
January 24, 1999, the logo license for Captain Blue-Eye, expired again.
February 4, 1999, a Logo contest announcement!
May 3, 1999, the submissions were in. Captain Blue-Eye was thought to be too Linux-specific.
June 8, 1999, The iconic swirl that we see today won the vote.
July 6, 1999, dpkg version 2, which was hinted at by Ben Collins back in May, is now officially a thing and the specifications are out there boasting a more modular design.
Debian weathered the Y2k storm with no major problems.
In October 2001, LAN Comp Systems begin mastering Debian 3.0 on DVD ahead of the official release.
Debian 3.0 was delayed because of broken boot floppies.
2002, the first net installation images were available.
2007, through a disagreement with Mozilla on backporting security fixes, would be replaced by the free-software version, Iceweasel.
2013, the trailing 0 on the major release is dropped. Minor releases will continue adding the point, as in .1, .2, etc.
Also in 2013, multi-arch support is added.
2020, Jonathan Carter was elected Debian Project Leader and has been reaffirmed three more times, and is currently serving as Leader.
June 10, 2023, Debian 12 is released, codenamed Bookworm.
