When we jump from that date to present date, there is one simple fact that remains : there is still no official GUI wallet
Information from Monero itself indicates and support that :

http://monero.org/faq-items/where-is-the-monero-xmr-gui-wallet/

That web site is a domain squatter.

Sure there are several unofficial versions but those are not supported, maintained or even further developed by Monero itself and therefore Monero can not and will not be held responsible if anything happens to these wallets.

Monero is not an entity so your sentence is misconstructed, but in any case regardless of what wallet you use, no one else is responsible for your use of open source software provided at no charge with no warranty. Use at your own risk.

Maybe a good idea to mention that on Monero's website somewhere. So with regards to Monero's Cripplemined Fastmine history, is there any official thread where this is pinned down
and for all to read ? Is there a birth of Monero where this is described ?

In terms of "fastmined", nothing has changed so the formula in the ANN OP (and possibly something on the web site) serves a complete and accurate description of the one emission curve that has ever existed.

As far as "cripplemined" that term doesn't even have a well defined meaning but the full and accurate history of the mining code is here: https://github.com/monero-project/bitmonero/commits/master

We've never created a "Birth of ~~Darkcoin~~ Monero" post to try to spin and obfuscate; it is all there in the previous paragraph.

There is a history writeup somewhere (I think by fluffypony) that describes the background, creation of the core team, etc. I don't know where it is though.

Well, thats just dandy... so to summarize :

* there is no official record or pinned post to inform newcomers about Monero's Fastmined / Cripplemined period and if people really want to know more they are directed to look at code on Github?
* third party (non-official) GUI wallets are linked at Monero's official website without any reference to use them at people's own risk, as they are not officially supported by Monero's dev team ?
* No official information regarding the risks of using Monero's webwallet and the risks of storing coins on exchanges for longterm ?
* no official GUI wallet after two years and still no ETA ?

Only one thing comes to mind when i think about it :
