That'd be

http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2002/debian-vote-200203/msg00087.html

Which contains the following:

:

    version   codename   freeze-date    release-date development/freeze

     1.1       buzz          ?          1996/06/17
     1.2       rex           ?          1996/12/12              6 months
     1.3       bo            ?          1997/06/05              6 months
     2.0       hamm       1998/02?      1998/07/23     8 + 6 = 14 months
     2.1       slink     1998/11/03     1999/03/10     4 + 4 =  8 months
     2.2       potato    2000/01/16     2000/08/15     3 + 7 = 10 months
     3.0       woody         -           2002/04?   ~18 + ~2 = 20 months?


Note the mistake on Slink-->Potato timing is
probably from someone in a hurry who is
not so used to big-endian dates.
