William Klein posted this on another board,
I have copied it here for those interested:

I have "cut-and-pasted" (and reformatted) the information from the '85 Standard and its amendments
with all the detail you might EVER WANT about the history of COBOL. To view this material, please see:

HTML version:

Anyone NOT interested in "COBOL trivia" will probably find this pretty boring.
However, it is a fairly definitive and comprehensive history.
If nothing else, it should be a useful reference - should you need one in the future.

Thanks, goes to my favorites! 
Mysterious enough - my other post in this thread, made in the morning (IST), disappeared! |

Anuj,
i always 'preview' my posts,
especially when I am collecting links for manuals or images.
a couple of times I have not submitted, yet I thought I had,
as a result the post was not there later. |
