Well we opened in 1997.. I think we started from rom 2.3 and then rom 2.4 code was later pasted into the existing code. So the credit was changed by the imps back then to 2.4. In the period 2000-2001 we scrapped that mess and started over from a fresh rom 2.4, pasting in the changes we had made ourselves since 1997. Anyhow, looks like the credits have been displayed incorrectly for the past 6 years. The documents were missing from our doc folder so I just downloaded a stock rom and read them, and we're all tidied up now hopefully. Unless the source files need stuff pasted into them too, not sure about that yet.

edit.. here's a stock rom greeting
