Sorry for the late answer.

Unfortunately, today I found out that gmail hid some emails from

Usually I update and fix similar stuff immediately. However a new

to test.

I have not a strong opinion about date format.
The situation seems quite confused:

  <https://iso.mit.edu/americanisms/date-format-in-the-united-states/>;

If you or others have any preferences I' ll update.
