End of Quiz – and the answer is… May 23rd 1995

Lots of people responded to our little quiz on slashdot:
MySQL Mug and Ten Years of MySQL and PHP

According to Monty, the correct answer for MySQL Version 1.0 is 23rd May 1995. So now you know!

Two people got really close, 20th and 26th May, so they will each get an anniversary mug and other stuff.

The person who rambled on about Nostradamus amazingly got close as well (May 28th) and I reckon that in any case such creativity deserves to be rewarded 😉

Those who assumed that there was any significance in when I first put the mugs online… sorry. The mugs just appeared when Mike Zinner finished the design…. At the time, I did not even know the precise date. We had to ask Monty later.

Thanks to everybody for their participation and good humour!

The anniversary mugs will remain available until the end of June: http://www.cafepress.com/mysql
