That is the same usenet post that I found. The release date actually depends if the dates are listed in UTC or not - The actual Date: header in the usenet post says "22 Nov 1994 19:14:59 -0800" (click "show options" then "show original") Given the paragraph above the timeline states "Time tolerance +/- 6 months" I wasn't sure that 8 hours made that much difference :) > Why did you s/FBD/USE/? The announces were issued by The FreeBSD > Project. I used it because the source of the announcements were usenet - and the description of USE is "usenet announcement". It wasn't exactly clear to me if I should use USE or FBD for these as they are official announcements from FreeBSD Project, but were found opn usenet. Use whatever you feel is best in this case. Thanks for looking at this, Gavin
