Danth made a post recently saying he thought it came in with a trade skill update during Kunark. That is really the only info I have.

I don't have a whole lot more than that myself, going mainly off memory.
Did a quick scour of archived/old websites and it strongly suggests fine plate (as well as dye for it) was added in the big tradeskill patch in september 2000. I notice no mention on various sites of anything better than banded prior to then and one post from EQ-traders in mid 2000 of smiths "soon" being able to make plate, with the recipes added to that site by October 2000.
Personally I'd love to be wrong. Bubbles made the wife and I sets of fine plate on P99 in 2009 and being able to skip Rubicite and its associated drama would be a nice convenience.
