Nick Burch commented on WHIMSY-63:
----------------------------------

I've managed to get some of the 2002 to mid-2004 dates by looking for common 
creation request/notification patterns. It gets about another 100.

> Provide a feed of account creation dates with corrected data

> As discussed on INFRA-12008, the earliest {{createTimestamp}} in LDAP is 
> 20090519, which corresponds with when the full LDAP import happened. This is 
> problematic for things like the {{projects.a.o}} timeline + 
> {{accounts-evolution.json}} data, and for the ComDev locations map over time. 
> As Infra feel that maintaining the corrected creation date in LDAP isn't a 
> core need, and it would be very painful to fix the current data, we should 
> instead have Whimsy publish a fixed list. This would read the 
> {{createTimestamp}} from ldap, and apply a correction for most (but not all) 
> 2004-2009 accounts based on account creation notices. (We can potentially 
> extend it later for pre-2004 accounts too)
