get_date was originally implemented by Steven M. Bellovin
(smb@research.att.com) while at the University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill. The code was later tweaked by a couple of people on
Usenet, then completely overhauled by Rich $alz (rsalz@bbn.com)
and Jim Berets (jberets@bbn.com) in August, 1990. Various
revisions for the gnu system were made by David MacKenzie, Jim Meyering,
Paul Eggert and others.
This chapter was originally produced by François Pinard
(pinard@iro.umontreal.ca) from the getdate.y source code,
and then edited by K. Berry (kb@cs.umb.edu).
