This may seem a minor nit-pick, but I believe it is worth pursuing.

Now for all you US-centric folk that means that on 03-Feb-1997, Fote
said the release date should be 15-Feb-1997. For the rest of the world,
however, it means that on 02-Mar-1997, Fote said the date would be
02-Huh-1997. I suggest that lynx be genuinely internationalised by
ensuring that all dates in all code, documentation and discussion be in
dd-mmm-yyyy format. What do you say, folks?
Jonathan.
