Subject: | Update man page in regard to "YEAR 2000" |
Hi,
this was originally reported by Helge Kreutzmann as Debian bug #370367.
Quoting:
--clip--
Update man page in regard to "YEAR 2000"
If you look at this section in the man page, it reads a little odd:
"buzzword starts flying around more and more"
http://language.perl.com/news/y2k.html is 404
"the Gregorian system is going to have to be modified slightly" [1]
"an offset from 1900 (which is 2 digits now"
I think this paragraph should be updated to reflect that 2006 > 2000
--clip--
The full bug report can be found at http://bugs.debian.org/370367 .
A working URL for the Y2K document would be
http://www.perl.org/about/y2k.html , as referenced in perlfaq4.
Cheers,
