Wow, I remember this but never knew about the HN launch delay!
You can tell when HN was finished from the ages of the oldest accounts, like pg and spez, which were created on Oct 9 and 10, 2006. I delayed the launch for a little over 5 months, till Feb 2007.

Tangent: someone should do a cross check of HN users who joined in 2007 AND got their first BitCoin in 2009. I was August 2007 and 2012. I bet there's a lot to learn from 2007/2009 folks.
