<title>A short History</title>

<para>

phpGroupWare started by Jengo (Joseph Engo) as an application to satisfy his girlfriends need for a webbased calendar/todo_list/email.
|
|
At the time it was called webdistro when Seek3r (Dan Kuykendall) discovered this promising project.
|
|
The two joined up together and between Seek3r's API design and Jengo's programming skills they renamed the project phpGroupWare and started building the application around the phpgwAPI.

|
|
During this period Seek3r took over project management to free Jengo up to do more development.
|
|
This duo worked hard to build a sucessful community around the project. Their efforts paid off, and the project is what it is today due to the efforts of the developers who have joined this community.
