>Category: mod_rewrite
>Synopsis: mod_rewrite should have the two digit year in a variable
>Confidential: no
>Severity: non-critical
>Priority: medium
>Responsible: apache
>State: open
>Class: change-request
>Submitter-Id: apache

>Organization:

>Release: all
>Environment:
linux, but this is just a minor os-independent feature request
>Description:
it would be nice if mod_rewrite provided a variable that contained the
two-digit year
like its variables for other date parts %{TIME_MON}, %{TIME_DAY}, etc..
>How-To-Repeat:
design a site that needs two-digit years in the URL and then find out that
mod_rewrite can't do it. :)
>Fix:
Here is a patch against mod_rewrite.c distributed with apache 1.2.5 that will
put the
two digit year into %{TIME_SHORTYEAR}
