I realise the bug report is closed, but what got put in is not %Y-%m-%d. It is %y-%m-%d.

(This is also the case if you run the command 'locale LC_TIME' with your locale set to en_CA.utf8.) However, it should be "%y-%m-%d". This is the standard date format in Canada (as specified by the Canadian Standards Association in CSA Z234.5:1989, which adopts the ISO 8601 standard). I noticed this in Ubuntu 7.10.
