好了，终于来了。我们开发 Discourse 已经足够久，在不到四年的时间里发布了 十个官方版本 ！
Discourse 1.0 – 2014 年 8 月 26 日 2018 年 5 月 31 日
追溯古典罗马/希腊时期对“论坛”的定义……
……我们早在当初就选择了 十位雅典演说家 的名单，为版本命名增添一些有趣且符合 Discourse 风格的元素。
试着想象一下，这个人正用空闲的手按下“回复”按钮：
这也是为什么我们的 团队成员照片 被设计成古典大理石雕像/半身像的风格。
Discourse 本质上关乎 人类沟通 ，而有趣的是，“沟通”一词的字面意思正是“来回奔跑”：
因此，我们现在需要一套新的版本代号，我将在回复中详细介绍。

What is Discourse, if not a MIRACULOUS INCREDIBLE INVENTION THAT FURTHERED HUMAN COMMUNICATION!
The history of communication technologies (media and appropriate inscription tools) have evolved in tandem with shifts in political and economic systems, and by extension, systems of power. Communication can range from very subtle processes of exchange to full conversations and mass communication. The history of communication itself can be traced back since the origin of speech circa 100,000 BCE. The use of technology in communication may be considered since the first use of symbols about 30,0
The history of telecommunication began with the use of smoke signals and drums in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. In the 1790s, the first fixed semaphore systems emerged in Europe. However, it was not until the 1830s that electrical telecommunication systems started to appear. This article details the history of telecommunication and the individuals who helped make telecommunication systems what they are today. The history of telecommunication is an important part of the larger history of commu...
So combining these two lists handily takes us through 3.0 and even a bit beyond:
petroglyph 2.1
pictogram 2.2
ideogram 2.3
writing 2.4
alphabet 2.5
telegraph 2.6
telephone 2.7
radio 2.8
television 2.9
videotelephony 3.0
satellite 3.1
internet 3.2
To make it a bit more interesting we will be selecting specific examples of said innovation, rather than the general concept, so rather than
Discourse 2.1 Petroglyph
Discourse 2.2 Pictogram
Discourse 2.6 Telegraph
we will have
If anyone wants to propose specific examples for releases 2.3 - 2.5, or 2.7 - 3.2 feel free to do so

Anyone opposed to calling 2.9 Nipkow, and 3.1 Sputnik?
A Nipkow disk (sometimes Anglicized as Nipkov disk; patented in 1884), also known as scanning disk, is a mechanical, rotating, geometrically operating image scanning device, patented in 1885 by Paul Gottlieb Nipkow. This scanning disk was a fundamental component in mechanical television through the 1920s and 1930s.
The device is a mechanically spinning disk of any suitable material (metal, plastic, cardboard, etc.), with a series of equally distanced circular holes of equal diameter drilled in ...
Sputnik 1 (/ˈspʊtnɪk/ or /ˈspʌtnɪk/; "Satellite-1", or "PS-1", Простейший Спутник-1 or Prosteyshiy Sputnik-1, "Elementary Satellite 1") was the first artificial Earth satellite. The Soviet Union launched it into an elliptical low Earth orbit on 4 October 1957, orbiting for three weeks before its batteries died, then silently for two more months before falling back into the atmosphere. It was a 58 cm (23 in) diameter polished metal sphere, with four external radio antennas to broadcast radio T...

@codinghorror I’ve noticed that 2.3 was given a name. Has a list of names been set in stone yet for releases not yet named?

我认为这不太合适……2.4 代表“书写”，因此采用
时间线概览：
2.1
岩画
Bhimbetka
约 30,000 年前
2.2
象形符号
La Pasiega
约 15,000 年前
2.3
表意文字
Vinča
约公元前 4500 年
2.4
书写
楔形文字
约公元前 2600 年
接下来，字母系统也明显源自希腊，时间为公元前 800 年：
至少在公元前 8 世纪，希腊人借用了腓尼基字母，并将其 adapted 为自己的语言，从而创造了第一个“真正”的字母系统，其中元音与辅音享有同等地位。根据希罗多德所传的希腊传说，字母是由卡德摩斯从腓尼基带到希腊的。希腊字母的字母与腓尼基字母相同，且两者的排列顺序也一致。
因此，让我们为未来的版本提前规划

The very first coded symbols – this would be ~15,000 years ago in the “pictogram” era, our previous release 2.2.
