Hi,

is there a possibility of using other date formats, such as yyyy-mm-dd or
yy-mm-dd which are used in countries such as Sweden (following ISO-8601
somewhat), and dd.mm.yyyy or dd.mm.yy as used in, among others, Germany?

The existing choices dd/mm/yy and mm/dd/yy are needlessly confusing to
BBS users, especially in the beginning of a month.

Best Regards,
Sebastian

Hi Paul,

PH> this will be a question for g00r00 when he is
PH> next active on the Mystic project.

Do you mean that I should directly address g00r00 instead of "All" when
asking something like this?

I'm very new here. :-)

Best Regards,
Sebastian
