There is a rather critical bug in Open Office regarding date formats.
This issue has cause both myself and my users continued frustration,
in fact I would estimate that over half of the users that I have
introduced OOo to have complained or abandoned OOo due to this bug. I
just noticed that this bug is marked as a feature request, not a bug
in the OOo Issue tracker. Will someone with the proper permissions
please mark the bug as a bug, not a feature request:

Thank you in advance.
This WISIWYG dogma is plain nonsense. Something in the GUI should
indicate the true cell value opposed to the formatted cell's output string.
I'd prefer 40131 for today's date, which is the true numeric value of
the cell which is used for all calculations.
ISO-date 2009-11-14 may be a compromise for the formula bar since this
is the language independent notation of a date.
