So, is this the year 29481?

I've been reading the Rubi-Ka Timeline to get up to date on the things that are happening.
The latest entry in the Timeline is august 14, 29479 and in this entry there is a link to a forum-topic which was started on august 15, 2005.
So year 29479 = year 2005? Making year 2007, year 29481?

If so, is there a historic report where I can learn on what happened after 14 august, 29479?

Also, is the in-game clock a 24 hour clock?

Thanks

Yes, we currently are in 29481.

All the more recent news can be found in the Editor News Forum hosted by Funcom. All of the threads in there start out as a news item released by a more or less official entity of the game.

Oh, and the ingame clock is a 27 hour clock that passes quite fast. The day/night cycles ingame are oriented around it.
