we had a wiki but it got spammed real bad so I took it down. we just don't have the admins time to keep it clean. I may revisit it in the future with some of the tools i now have at hand for fighting spam on the forum. but at the moment a wiki is out of our ability to moderate effectively

After a little travel back in time to the beginning, came across this discussion and the claim in the article that AutoIt2 was closed source, so, presumably, only the AutoIt devs (Jon and some others?) had access to the source.
Thus it must be the changelogs of early AHK nods to Jon from AutoIt only in the way the functions were wrapped etc. in the finished product, so, unless there was some kind of correspondence with the devs, highly unlikely for any snagging of AutoIt C++ snippets.

In the farewell post of Chris, no mention of what his plans were next, it looks as if it was retirement, or off-grid entirely. Does anyone know more?
Chris did say he was not keen on objects or array development, these days it's difficult to imagine doing much at all without them!

That post is from 2010 - but afaik tank contacted him before the creation of the AutoHotkey foundation, in 2014, to seek his approval. Chris hasn't really been "active" on this forum since then, but is still the 'Site Admin' per the Team list. I guess for historic reasons (Polyethene etc.) there was an understandable wish to grant him "emergency" administrative privileges, even if he isn't involved anymore in the regular business, so that he could intervene if he wanted.
Perhaps tank had more contact after that time.
