Woher kommt der Name foobar2000?

Die beiden Wörter foo und bar werden in der Informationstechnik als Platzhalter für Variablen und Funktionen verwendet.

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
   char *foo = "foobar";
   char *bar = "2000";
   fprintf(stdout, "%s %s\n", foo, bar);

   return 0;
}

C++-Code (foobar2000 ist in C++ programmiert)

2000 bezieht sich auf die Jahreszahl.

Ich habe gerade meinen Rechner aufgeräumt, daher:

Die meisten Betas und RCs   8)

Man könnte ja denken, der Sprung auf 1.0 sei mit einer großen Anzahl an Betas vor sich gegangen. Aber nein, er kam für uns alle fast schon überraschend. Die größte Umstellung war wohl die von 0.8 auf 0.9 - und die ging einher mit der bis heute unerreichten Zahl von 14  Beta-Versionen und dann noch zwei so genannten "Release Candidates", bevor die finale Version erschien. Das war das letzte mal, dass es "Release Candidates" überhaupt gab, beim Sprung von 0.6 auf 0.7 fanden sich derer noch ganze 16 bei nur 9 Betas. (Alle Angaben ohne Gewähr)

Entwicklung der Größe des foobar2000 Installers:

  • 0.7: 0.95MB 23.09.2003
  • 0.8: 1.17MB 26.02.2004
  • 0.9: 1.54MB 19.03.2006
  • 1.0: 2.99MB 10.01.2010

  • 2.0: 5.76MB 27.04.2023

Sehr viel Programmcode ist in der 0.9er Reihe dazugekommen. Gefühlt hat diese Phase ewig gedauert und es wurde heftig spekuliert, wann endlich 1.0 erscheint. 2.0 hatte 35 beta Versionen.
