Summary	0006636: Please use ISO dates in this installation
Description	0003160 was closed as fixed, but this installation is still showing dates in mm-dd-yy format. I am unable to update 0003160, so have had to open a new issue. From 0003160: "Since Mantis is a product used by people from all over the world, this implementation should take its international audience into account. I have problems deciphering your dates (they are ambiguous). Please change the date format for this installation to use the ISO format (yyyy-mm-dd): this is not only completely unambiguous, but also an international standard, and a format used as standard in many countries."
Additional Information	From 0003160: " I also think the ISO format for dates should be the default configuration, again considering the international user community. (Of course I'm using ISO dates in my own installation - so coming here it was a rather unpleasant surprise not to be able to decipher dates...)"
Tags	No tags attached.
