history

The Dolibarr project was started in April 2002 by Rodolphe Quiedeville. At this point he started programming the Foundation Management module. Version 1.0 was published in September 2003.

In July 2008 Laurent Destailleur - the author of AWStats - took over the position of chief developer. Numerous support organizations and groups have been set up in several countries. The first country was France - the country where Dolibarr is most widespread - with the Association Dolibarr (2009). Dolibarr's popularity rose in France after it was distributed free of charge to startups by some government agencies.
