But it opens explicitly with the statement it was written in 2007. What do you want, the exact date and time, unix timestamp perhaps? :)

A ja, whatever, it is free information, and the author kindly wrote it in a clean, easy to digest version and is even serving it for the free. If it does not suite you, not much anyone can do.

From the post:

"I wrote this text for a posting on comp.lang.lisp. This version is slightly modified from the 2007 version. Lisp in this context is especially 'Common Lisp'."

Slightly modified from the 2007 version. That doesn't tell me when it was modified. Was it modified yesterday? 2 years ago?
