While I was having a trawl through looking for older (now deceased) projects, I came across this:
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/old_news.php
It's a listing of all the "news" from different projects going all the way back to 24th August 2002, when BOINC was being developed and was initially running on UNIX.
Some stuff is very interesting to read up about, all these years later
