The spec says "The date format is DD/MM/YYYY." See page 9 of

https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/attachment.cgi?id=1708

That is misleading (sorry). What it should have said is "The date format
is the same format used to display the dates in the 'from' and 'to' text
fields".

Please don't :) Once again, the prototype code should not be used as a
reference for development: only the way the prototype looks like and
behaves. The only purpose of the prototype is to bring the design specs to
life, so that they are easier to follow. The code should not be reused in
any way (it's very bad code!).

Cheers,
