Good work! The history section is what I always missed on the e website. 
Two remarks, afaik Ewd and Eprog were merged into ecore. Ewd became 
ecore_data and Eprog became ecore_evas. But I'm not entirely sure if the 
latter is true. Second, maybe, you could also mention that Kim picked up 
DR0.16 (around 2004?) and is still maintaining it.
