* SIPB created [discuss](http://stuff.mit.edu/afs/sipb/project/www/discuss/discuss.html). It was modeled after forum on Multics.
* SIPB was responsible for [the original www.mit.edu web server](http://stuff.mit.edu/webmasters.html#history) in 1993; it may have been among the first 100 HTTP servers in the world. In August 1999, www.mit.edu began mirroring the official MIT website, originally on [web.mit.edu](http://web.mit.edu/). On August 8, 2004, IS&T took over the [www.mit.edu](http://www.mit.edu/) name, and SIPB's portal became [stuff.mit.edu](http://stuff.mit.edu).
* SIPB was originally responsible for Linux-Athena.
