The FAQ on the main site should be culled from the one on the CrossWire developers' wiki. http://www.crosswire.org/wiki/EnduserFAQ http://www.crosswire.org/wiki/EnduserFAQ
PocketSword is already mentioned there.

Thus CrossWire must have been founded prior to that, perhaps a few months before. Troy can give you the exact date.
