Sat 03 Mar 2007 11:53:27 AM UTC, comment #3: I put en-gb back on top of my list just after the test, now I see the dates in UK format. Something's broken here.	Thorsten Haude <yooden>
Sat 03 Mar 2007 11:49:34 AM UTC, comment #2: To test your theory, I changed the order of my preferred languages and put de-de on top, and true enough, the format is changed to something more readable. The usual item on top of the list is en-gb however. Last I heard, Britains did not copy the clearly idiotic US date format. My research was limited to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_format, and frankly, I won't spend any more time just to allow some imbeciles to continue confusing the world with moronic whims like this. (And in case this is left unclear: I'm not talking about yeupou or anyone else connected with Savane, just about USians in general) As demonstrated below, the US date format is simply broken. Please fix it. (Yes you can.) As a fallback, believe my browser if it tells you that I prefer non-crap (ie. en-gb). (In case you can't easily access the logs: I use Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.2) Gecko/20070220 Firefox/2.0.0.2)	Thorsten Haude <yooden>
Sat 03 Mar 2007 08:33:52 AM UTC, comment #1: Date Format is the default for the selected locale; There may be an issue with the locale selection however. How is configured your browser and environment?	Mathieu Roy <yeupou>
Mon 22 Jan 2007 08:04:55 PM UTC, original submission: I am proud member of Savannah since 01/07/07. (http://savannah.gnu.org/users/yooden) Ok. Probably not the first of July this year (though I hope I remember this in twelve month), but is it the seventh of January this year or the seventh of July six years ago? Please, please change the date to ISO format (2007-01-22).	Thorsten Haude <yooden>
