Robin Taylor commented on DS-815:
---------------------------------
Hi all,
There were a bunch of date related issues resolved for 1.7. It would be worth
giving them a quick review.
I suspect the underlying problem here is that the data is being bulk imported
and so doesn't use DCDate at all when being imported. I have reservations about
patching over this just for Browse. I suspect the problems caused by bad data
will keep bubbling up in different places (now Browse, but later OAI, etc etc).
We need to prevent people importing bad data. Of course that is easier said
than done :)
Cheers.
