Before global penguins tease us BSD's inumerate, illogical,
or too California- centric ;-) ...

Even then FreeBSD was not a group name, just a personal suggestion 'till
it was at least seconded, whenever, from which ever time & zone.
So American FreeBSD anniversary might be 19th or after.
& Global FreeBSD anniversary is 20th June or after.

Cheers,
Julian

Clearly he was using ntp.

So does that mean we should update the date in calendar.freebsd? It
seems that the real anniversary was 31 minutes ago.
