Andreas(R) (http://slashdot.org/~Andreas(R)) writes to note that the Freeciv (http://www.freeciv.org/) project today turns 20. The GPL'd project "was founded on November 14 1995, by Peter Joachim Unold, Claus Leth Gregersen and Allan Ove Kjeldbjerg. The three Danish students created this open source strategy game while studying computer science at Aarhus University. Today, 20 years later the founders of the project have been interviewed to find out about the early history of Freeciv (http://play.freeciv.org/blog/2015/11/freeciv-founded-20-years-ago-today/)."

Not that many games have their own officially designated port numbers (https://www.iana.org/assignments/service-names-port-numbers/service-names-port-numbers.xhtml?search=5556), which says something about Freeciv's tenacity.
