Tweak change for Asimov's entry some. Restore reference to
Russian SFSR, but note that it's now Russia, not part of the USSR.


# 1.15 29-Mar-2004 minoura

- AFAIK, Samuel Barber and Edward Elgar are composers; move them to
calendar.music, complementing Barber's birthday.
- Remove duplicating Beethoven's birthday.
(some materials say it's 12/16, some say 12/17, and some christened on
12/17... I do not know which is correct)
- BTW, who is Johann Sebastian Bach born on 05/22, 1665?

Give year of MLK's birth. Expand some names. Okayed by wiz.


# 1.12 01-Feb-2004 snj

Jimi Hendrix's death date belongs in the music calendar. Okayed by wiz.


# 1.11 24-Apr-2003 mjl

On second thought, move BSD to calendar.computer.
While there, spell Dijkstra correctly.


# 1.10 24-Apr-2003 mjl

Correct dates for Talbot and Zuse. Aristotle surely died only
once (though I have not been able to confirm the exact date).
Add NetBSD/FreeBSD birthday too for good measure.

Most of the changes from FreeBSD with corrections.
