After spending a lot of time searching the OO issues database, I still stumble a bit comparing timestamps because of the idiosyncratic format: So, on list disc...@openoffice.org, I asked if anyone knew the motivation behind the format of the timestamp used by OO's Issue Tracker:

  "DoW MMM dd HH:mm:ss yyyy" - where

  DoW  = Day-of-Week (3 characters)
  MMM  = Month (3 characters)
  dd   = Day-of-Month (2 digits)
HH:mm:ss = Hours (24-hour, 2 digits) : minutes (2 digits) : seconds (2 digits))
  yyyy = Year (4 digits)

On the list disc...@openoffice.org I asked if anyone could explain the functional motivation for that format, and no one (so far) seems to know. However, Bernhard Dippold suggested to ask here. Does anyone know why that format is used?
