Please fix the wikipedia entry!
With what? Make it say 2003 for D1 and 2007 for D2?
- Jonathan M Davis
Other languages have just 1 date. I think wikipedia's editors
would resist if D will be different.
If we want to do so, there should be convincing rationale in
entry source. Like comment for file extensions (see "file_ext"
here

)
