The What OpenVox Is timeline claimed "May 2025 — OpenVox 8.19.0 ships — The fork's first public release lands." The first OpenVox release was 8.11, announced January 21, 2025 (Vox Pupuli announcement, LWN coverage). 8.19.0 (May 30, 2025) was simply the first version with a GitHub Release entry, which is likely where the confusion came from.

The item's body text stands as written — "versioned to continue right where open source Puppet left off" is exactly right, with 8.11 following the last pre-fork tag 8.10.0.

While verifying, the timeline's other flagged dates checked out against GitHub metadata: the openvox repo was created 2024-10-17 (matching "October 2024 — A community mirror appears") and the OpenVoxProject org 2024-11-14 (matching "November 2024 — The fork moves to Vox Pupuli"), so no other timeline changes are needed.

Partially addresses #14.

The timeline claimed OpenVox 8.19.0 (May 2025) was the fork's first
public release. The first release was OpenVox 8.11, announced
January 21, 2025. 8.19.0 was simply the first version with a GitHub
Release entry, which is likely where the confusion came from.
