Yes, I think keeping all of these empty by default is the best approach, and the one most like 3.1.6 uses. I think 3.1.6 with patches has a solid implementation of this, so I'll compare the 2 Display codes to see what discrepancies I find, and try to figure if these are warranted or not. I see no reason to go with option 2 or 3 above. However, I haven't seen your patch, nor has it come through in the CVS yet if you committed it. The current htcommon/defaults.cc still has a default of 1970. Can I see the fix for this so I can give it a try? It's not attached to the bug report you filed. Thanks. -- Gilles R.
