Author: imp Date: Wed Sep 9 22:35:39 2020 New Revision: 365531 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/365531 Log: MFC r362420: r362420 | imp | 2020-06-19 22:07:44 -0600 (Fri, 19 Jun 2020) | 13 lines Correct 1BSD release date. The Quarter Century of Unix book said that 1BSD was released March 1979. However, the 1BSD tape image that's on Kirk's historical unix collection has an earlier date. It was common practice, at the time, to create a new copy of the tape from the master system when a new tape was to go out, so several different versions of 1BSD, etc were shipped from Berkerely. The date on the 1BSD tape in the Berkeley archives on Kirk's DVD is dated in January 16 1979 on the label, and has dates as late as Jan 29 (there's an UPDATE file that says this includes updates through this date). Note this date as well.
