== Dates are incorrect. Fix or maybe even remove? ==
The dates in this refer to the date the programming language first appeared, which is often *not* the same date as when generators appeared for this language.
For example if you would glance at this article, you would get the impression that:
* Generators were first introduced in Lisp in 1958 (not so, generators are a recent addition to Lisp, and AFAIK not even standardized in Common Lisp)
* PHP has generators since 1995 (It's implemented and available in the `latest source', but available in a general release yet).
etc... IMHO this is rather misleading ... Someone should fix the dates to reflect whenever this feature was added to a language (if it wasn't there from the start) or the dates should just be removed.
