• I only got so far before making the screen capture.
• There doesn't seem much point in continuing to fix all the problems.

wp071's Issues

WordPress is 18 today - 27th May 2021 - can we get v0.71 to run with PHP 8.0?

Well, I got it installed and took a few screen captures.
I managed to edit a couple of posts, but didn't get to see the front end.

Maybe I'll get a bit further for WordPress's 21st birthday in 2024.

WordPress 20th anniversary is on 27th May 2023 - can we get farther than we did in 2021?

Specific commit and wider commit history

I ask because it says there are 18 commits. WordPress was forked from B2-cafe press. It'd be even nicer with a full commit log if that is available somewhere. 👍 nice project though!
