acquisition finished in 2019

there are quite a lot of features, but it's hard to say what constitutes a new module. (well, there's "Feature: the ngx_stream_set_module." so maybe yes?)

One would probably have to go through git logs [1] so I guess I should do that after getting some food in the belly to answer my own question. It's a big log. Interesting side note, appears all commits from Maxim stopped in January 2024. Must be all F5 now.

Ah yes, I vaguely recall the drama. Thankyou.

16 commits from F5 from 2020 to 2025, nothing before that. Looks like they are bugfixes and enhancements. Perhaps someone else created the ngx_stream_set_module module prior to the acquisition.
