  • I've added DS's history <offtopic love of DS>because I consider their products to be leaps and bounds above other programs/apps. They documented A LOT of BCALLS, hooks, etc. when barely anyone knew about them. They've revolutionized programming for the TI-83 Plus</offtopic>. It is because of them that this wiki exists.

  • This history goes farther back. I believe it all began with ti-files. Do we have any info on them? (preceding unsigned comment by Toksyuryel (talk • contribs) 17:23, 15 July 2006 (PDT))
    • Oops, sorry about that. Could've sworn I signed it o.O Toksyuryel 07:02, 19 July 2006 (PDT)

I really don't think mentioning every single DS product is nessacry. the maybe well produced but They aren't alone in that. Some of them should be on the proof of concept page. Anyway I think looking back at significant events woulds more helpful.--Jim e 18:52, 15 July 2006 (PDT)

I have to agree with Jim E here. This shouldn't be the history of Detached Solution. Something like "First Application Shell" would be possible, but the release of DAWG (even if it's a nice prog) is rather unimportant in the history of the community. --kv83 23:39, 15 July 2006 (PDT)

I've moved almost all DS-related stuff to Team:Detached Solutions. Guillaumeh 00:29, 16 July 2006 (PDT)

Needing more content

What important events are we forgetting in this page? If any. Or it should be somehow more complete? It would be nice older members of the community complete this.

Some events we could add:

  • end of POTM and start of POTY, that means a major decrease in calc stuff. (easy to get date from ticalc)
  • Change of calculators popularity, exactly the transition between the TI-85/86 to TI-8x family. (variable in regions, vague and discussable)

This article is worthless without Bill Nagel

Bill Nagel used to be the god of the TI scene, having made ASHELL83, and other games. --Dwedit 04:03, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
