Hello, With the recent changes to the committer graphs, I again was reminded how much I hate the YYYY/MM/DD format (I can't help it ...). Given that this almost looks like ISO 8601, but is an unreadable variant of it, I would like to aggressively change this throughout the tree. I'd like to start with minor stuff like share/misc/*.dot. Then probably src/UPDATING, and ports/UPDATING after I've identified the consumers of these docs. The ultimate goal would be to change syslog's timestamp and ps(1) output, but that goal is far off ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601 Uli
