The very first one seems to have been posted by
Dan Tilque on May 8, 1992, coming on the heels of
an April post where he says he'd be willing to give it
a try. There was a hiatus on FAQ posts & updates
from roughly Aug 1993 - Nov 1994, at which point
the Leepers revived it and maintained it (and also
hosted it, if not immediately, then eventually).

A long, long time ago. Which, in internet time, could be last week.

But, the webpage says:

Last change:
