Oldest projects by status
angels3mom started a spreadsheet to keep track of the oldest projects still in the p1/p2/p3/f1/f2 rounds (and lingering between those rounds), with assistance from zarabee, as part of the work of The Gravedigger team.
The project list exists as a spreadsheet, including the date the project was created, and the date the project had its first recorded activity on DP. Because of the extreme age of some projects, the date they entered P1 or R1 can't be accurately determined, in which case it's been estimated based on forum posting dates and similar clues.
The list is based predominantly on Retread projects sent back through the rounds when DP changed over to P1/P2/P3 proofing (aka The Change). Other projects are sourced from P3 Oldies and forum searches for project discussions authored by Raz. Raz authored project threads before they became automated some time in 2004. Some projects from 2003 don't have a project discussion at all.
Listed below are projects which were started (R1 proofing) in 2002 and 2003, including projects which likely had activity in 2002/2003, but the date when they entered R1 is uncertain (marked with a *). You can also see the table sorted by Age: oldest projects
Progress summary
June 2009: As at October 2007, there were only two projects with first recorded activity in 2002 listed here, and 95 with first recorded activity in 2003. By June 4, 2009, 24 of these had been posted to PG; 26 were either in Post-Processing or available for PP; 31 were in formatting, and the remaining 16 were in proofing rounds. Four additional projects had already been completed and posted by then, making 101 altogether.
July 2010: Since a year ago, eleven more old projects have been cleaned up. Yay! The numbers of projects left in proofing, formatting and post-processing stages have fallen by 4, 5 and 2 respectively. Unfortunately all the proofing round projects are unavailable for one reason or another.
January 2010: This could be a good year: The American Revolutionis Waiting for Release in P3; in addition 6 projects are available for F2 now, with 8 waiting; this leaves only 4 periodicals unavailable. With 18 available for PP there's potential for progress at this stage too.

N.B. Minstrelsy of the Scottish border (3rd ed) (3 of 3) (1806) {R} was actually created in 2004, and seems to have been added to this list in error. I'll remove it if/when I get the page for 2004 projects set up. AnneG 12:57, 23 March 2013 (PDT)

Post-processing
Note the final column below is maintained by hand. The date shown for Available for PP refers to the most recent date - some projects have been checked out one or more times and then returned. What is most useful here? PPers, feel free to jump in, check these out, and change the data here.
If you're thinking of picking up one of the available projects to PP, please remember that because of their age, they may not be up to current DP standards. Be particularly mindful of the quality or lack of illustration files. If you find a problem with any of the projects, tell someone. The first point of contact should be the PM, if still active, so posting in the project thread is a good first step. This page is a good starting point for checking projects.
