Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66157&edit=1 ID: 66157 User updated by: t at tcx dot de Reported by: t at tcx dot de Summary: Reduce number of date formats from 9 to 1 Status: Assigned Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant Assigned To: levim Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: http://www.python.org/ now uses Y-m-d. In Gmail web interface I also see that more of my reply emails write something like: "2014-03-04 2:58 GMT+01:00 Name <name@example.org>:" (Note, they miss the leading 0 for one digit hours and use GMT which is wrong, correct is UTC).
