            Bug ID: 70201
           Summary: Flow: older topics display timestamp instead of
                    "Active 2 months ago"
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Flow

On all our Flow boards, I noticed that eventually you stop seeing
human-readable timestamps. Further back than "3 weeks ago" all topic dates
revert to "7/30/2014, 1:56:14 PM" that you usually only see on rollover (if you
have JS enabled). This is a regression, I think because the JavaScript
`flowMessages "time": function` that ErikB wrote back in April only handles up
to "weeks ago".  To match cldr it needs to do "months ago" and "years ago" as
well.

I suggest reimplementing extensions/cldr/tests/TimeUnitsTest.php in 
tests/qunit/new/test_flow-handlebars.js to catch the missing conversions.

To see it:
* Load a Flow board.
* Scroll down by holding space or dragging or whatever.
* Notice that the older posts don't have human-friendly "Active XX ago" date
but instead show the full timestamp.
* To make these easier to spot, switch to topics only view, then search for
"ago" or "2014".
