Abstract
This chapter describes the evolution of the Greenstone digital library project through its first 10 years of development. It provides an overview of the software, which includes both production and research versions, as well as a chronological account of notable events that occurred in this period. The chapter also focuses on the tension that occurs between trying to support two versions of the software, and our strategy for resolving this conflict, that is, of reconciling production values with a research framework.
