Yes, I know this has nothing to do with the password protection itself, but
apparently there is a mismatch
in writing and reading Dates in password protected swikis, that is not there
in the normal swikis. As also
'12/7/2000' asDate produces the wrong Date (7 december) I suspected that the
password protected one uses this method
to read the dates - and yes you're right, someone may have changed things
related to Dates in the 2.9 alpha. I can't check
as I am leaving for two weeks now, but in any case you're warned now ;-)
cheers,
