Oops, I'm afraid I didn't look closely at the format used for
BUILD_DATE. It uses the English 3-letter abbreviation for the month, so
we end up with file names that look like
on-crypto-2010-Jan-12-nd.i386.tar.bz2
I'd rather use all numbers for the date. First, it'll mean that sorting
by file name also gives you sorting by date. Second, I think it's
friendlier for people whose native language is other than English.
I have a mild preference for
on-crypto-20100112-nd.i386.tar.bz2
because it's more compact. But it's harder visually to parse, so I'm
okay with
on-crypto-2010-01-12-nd.i386.tar.bz2
I prefer that one, because it is easier to visually parse. I'm sorry
I haven't reviewed yet, do you have an updated webrev that incorporates
the comments so far? thanks!
