==History==
 
In spring of 2001, with the demise of <i>Daria</i> imminent (the final six episodes would air that summer), many fans were discouraged, feeling as though there would be nothing left to stick around for. Eventually the idea of taking a "next step," rallying around the cause of putting the show on DVD, became popular. Several fans took steps to make this idea a reality.
 
As noted on the [http://www.the-wildone.com/dvdaria/credits.html DVDaria Credits & Legal] page and elsewhere:
*[[John Takis]] was responsible for coming up with the name DVDaria.
*[[David Wycislak]] designed the original header and wrote the mission statement.
*[[Martin J. Pollard]] designed the banners, which could be distributed to other websites.
*[[Aapo Laitinen]] designed the DVDaria website.
*[[Martin Sylvester]] gave instructions on how to write to MTV.
* Alan Benard updated the website regularly and is responsible for the statements "Whoever thought trying to give a TV network money would be such an effort?" and "The Web's finest exquisitely written, angry petition!" The latter poked fun at a statement made on the MTV <i>Daria</i> website, which was viewed as a snub of the fans.
