History
AGTY was formed in September 2009 after the lead developers became frustrated with limitations of their local Freecycle group.[1] This was at a similar time many of the UK Freecycle groups decided to break away from its US roots following disagreements and dismissal of long standing UK moderators.[2]

gollark: They also told us to do the entire set of exercises in the first chapter of the textbook for... I think next week... so quite possibly.
gollark: They talked about how excited they were about... doing a hundred past exam papers in their spare time, or something?
gollark: I got a weird teacher quite like that this year, but fortunately managed to transfer away from having them quite soon.
