Eike Rathke <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ever confirmed|0 |1 Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW OS|Windows (All) |All --- Comment #11 from Eike Rathke <[email protected]> --- YYYY/MM/DD is not used in en-US locale formatting, so why should Y/M/D be in its date acceptance patterns? Of course we could add it to en-US date acceptance patterns (and maybe others) just because other software accepts such ambiguous input. Bear in mind that it will never work reliably for two-digits years like 25/6/11 that would result in a date 2011-06-25 instead of 2025-06-11 because M/D/Y is the preferred en-US date input pattern. Adding Y/M/D thus could create more confusion. Excel also accepts all kind of weird combinations of date input that is never used in the current locale, we'll never go down that route again. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
