In trac, the dates should be in the ISO8601 format

[vinc17@…]

In trac, the dates are currently in the American format, with a 2-digit year, which makes them very ambiguous (e.g. 04/05/06). They should be in the ISO8601 format (like in Bugzilla).

It seems that that can be changed by setting the appropriate PythonOption. See ​http://trac-hacks.org/ticket/317 for an example of changing the date format.

But the problem is to have the right locale installed. Moreover, ro_RO is probably not a good idea if one wants to avoid strings in Romanian. Under Linux, I'm using en_DK. Unfortunately it is not available under Mac OS X (in case the web server is hosted on a Mac OS X machine).

I too would like this. Unfortunately Trac (still!) does not support this. See ​this issue and ​this issue which superseded it. There are some patches in those issues, though, which may be sufficient.

​http://dev.mutt.org/trac/report has ISO-8601 dates. But perhaps it uses a patched version.

I changed the default formats to be non-locale based and force the YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format. This will of course need to be rehacked every Trac update until there are nice trac.ini options (scheduled for 0.11 and/or 0.12 it seems).
