>>I will criticize only your date and time format... how will you extract this from your code if you have guys from other countries with a different time format? :) The YMD date I'm setting in that script is not in use by anyone on any team I worked with, but its unambiguous and easy to parse. And I do have the code somewhere which extracts these comments to include in TheBigLog, which is still not used for anything in particular, but it's the thought that counts :).

They also use dd/mm/yy in Argentina? Then you didn't really switch your date format. I had that bad luck that the three countries where I worked don't have any date format in common, unless we count ANSI (yes, american national standard) date format, which is yyyy-mm-dd, which coincides with the hungarian. So I had to develop a pavlovian reflex (not in the sense that whenever the dog rings a bell I jump to bring it food - my reflexes aren't as good as that Pavlov guy had, and, besides, got cats not dogs)... you can consider strictdate=2 as my regular state of mind :).
