The history of this website goes back to 1997, when I launched it on the servers of Ghent University where I was working as a researcher. At that time its URL was http://allserv.rug.ac.be/~sdconinc/waternet/. The website also hosted the provisional website of the EURAMES Water Group, established at the September 1999 conference of the European Association of Middle Eastern Studies, which took place at Ghent University.
In the following years, the Waternet website was hosted on the Ghent University servers under http://waternet.rug.ac.be/ and http://waternet.ugent.be/. After I left the university in 2005, I created the present domain name for Waternet on waternet.be
