Re: [Taginfo-dev] Creation date projects/taginfo.json

[Jochen Topf]

This doesn't make any sense. Most projects were started and used the tags they
use long before taginfo even had the projects feature. Only if you compared
changes to the taginfo.json files during the time they existed (which you can't
generally), you could see whether any new tags were added etc. But even that
would be questionable because changes in the taginfo.json file could be because
of the change in the project they describe or because the json file was wrong
and didn't really reflect what tags the project was using.

And please don't spam owners of those projects. The email address in the json
file is for when there are actual problems with those files.

Re: [Taginfo-dev] Creation date projects/taginfo.json

[Martin Raifer]

A reasonable ballpark value could be the date when the pull request to
add the respective project file was opened on github:

  https://github.com/taginfo/taginfo-projects/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed
