It was four years ago today that the first Astropy coordination meeting
took place at CfA with the following agenda:

This meeting was the first time that words were really put into action [1],
and now it's amazing to see how the ideas (dreams?) from the meeting have
become reality.  Thanks to all those in the community who have devoted time
and energy to making this happen!

Cheers,
Tom

[1]: I would say that this email from Marshall Perrin
<https://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/astropy/2011-June/001380.html> is the
moment when the idea of Astropy was conceived (an exciting moment to be
sure!), and the first meeting was the birth of Astropy.
