Yup, in 1997, according to Wikipedia.

Anyways. I'm heading towards sick of this.

(FWIW, and not surprisingly, I would be pretty happy if a GNU user group
or mailing list appears. I'm glad Linux exists, and I'm grateful to
Linus, but the FSF is the cause I'm interested in. It'd be neat to be
able to talk about that side of things without risking annoying 90% of
the group.)
