Sebastian Nagel reopened NUTCH-1554: ------------------------------------ Hi Lewis, the opposite is true: now the HttpDateFormat is sensitive to the locale set on the system. If a Russian locale is used the if-modified-since date sent in the HTTP header will look like: {code} % LC_ALL=ru_RU.utf8 runtime/local/bin/nutch \ org.apache.nutch.net.protocols.HttpDateFormat Пн, 08 апр 2013 21:24:24 GMT {code} That's definitely not the date format specified in the HTTP RFC (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec3.html#sec3.3.1).
