Yes, I think we all know how to do that. That's the easy part. Would you 
now care to go through that list and

1) Pick out the relevant bits, and not the stuff referring to other stuff
2) Find the related patents in various countries, all of which have 
different cutoff dates
3) Catalogue all the relevant dates
4) Fill in the missing ones - this is the real stinker to do.
