## Mar 2014
Synnefo v0.15 gets released with many new features, with a direction towards 
networking. Most notable are: Floating 
IPs, implementation of the <a href="http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-network/2.0/content/" title="">Neutron API</a>, NIC hotplugging,
creation of IPv6 only networks and the ability for VM resizing (CPU and RAM).


## Nov 2013
Synnefo v0.14.8 and v0.14.9 get released. These two versions support both 
Debian Wheezy and Debian Squeeze to help the migration from Squeeze to Wheezy.<br>
On the end of November, Synnefo v0.14.10 gets released, supporting only Debian
Wheezy, while at the same time being the first release that supports the newer 
Ganeti 2.8.

## Jun 2013
Synnefo v0.14 gets released with many new features. Since this version, Synnefo is branding neutral (all remaining ~okeanos references are removed). It also gets a branding mechanism and the <a href="http://www.synnefo.org/docs/synnefo/latest/admin-guide.html#branding" title="Synnefo documentation" target="_blank">corresponding documentation</a>, so that others can adapt it to their branding identity.

## Apr 2013 
Synnefo v0.13 gets released, after a huge cleanup and code refactoring. All separate components are merged under the single Synnefo repository. This is the first release as a unified project, containing all parts.

## Jan 2013
The software behind the ~okeanos service, Synnefo, gets an official website and goes public: <a href="http://www.synnefo.org/" title="">www.synnefo.org</a>

## Dec 2012
Software cleanup and removal of ~okeanos hardcoded references inside Synnefo.

## Apr 2012
The software behind ~okeanos resides on three separate repositories:
<ul>
    <li>Astakos: the Identity service</li>
    <li>Cyclades: the Compute/Network/Image service</li>
    <li>Pithos: the File/Object Storage service</li>
</ul>
Decide to refer to the whole software stack as Synnefo, which means 'Cloud' in Greek, and start writing the first version of the <a href="http://www.synnefo.org/docs/synnefo/latest/index.html" target="_blank" title="Visit Synnefo Documentation">Synnefo documentation</a>.

## Mar 2012
~okeanos enters the public alpha2 phase (v0.9). The new Pithos is completely integrated as part of ~okeanos and now acts as the unified store for Images and Files.

## Nov 2011
The new rewritten Pithos goes public alpha, as part of ~okeanos. It is marketed Pithos+ and the old Pithos remains as a separate service. It provides syncing and sharing capabilities for files, and also native syncing clients for Mac OS X, iPhone, iPad and Windows.

## Jul 2011
~okeanos goes public alpha (v0.5.2.1). This version includes the Identity, Compute, Network and a primitive Image service.

## May 2011
GRNET decides to rewrite Pithos from scratch in-house, make it part of the ~okeanos service and also add syncing (Dropbox-like) capabilities to it. Implementation of the new version of Pithos starts.

## Oct 2010
After evaluating all current solutions, open source and proprietary, GRNET decides to base the service on <a href="https://code.google.com/p/ganeti/" target="_blank" title="Google Ganeti Code">Google Ganeti</a> and to design and implement all missing parts in-house. Implementation of the Compute Service of ~okeanos starts.

## Jun 2010
GRNET decides to provide a complete, AWS-like cloud service (Compute/Network/Volume/Image/Storage) called <a href="https://okeanos.grnet.gr/home/" target="_blank" title="~okeanos homepage">~okeanos</a>,
open to the whole Greek academic and research community. Additionally the need arises for non-volatile/elastic VMs, but rather persistent cloud servers.

## May 2009
Pithos goes public beta.

## Jan 2007
GRNET decides to out-source the project and implementation starts.

## Nov 2006
<a href="https://www.grnet.gr/en" target="_blank" title="Greek Research & Technology Network">GRNET</a> decides to provide a Cloud Storage Service called Pithos, open to the whole Greek academic and research community. The service would feature 50GB of storage space for everybody!
