BOINC 5.10.45 (Win-32) Tasks list: Sort on Rep Deadline ignores AM/PM

In the "Advanced" view Tasks tab, clicking on the column headings causes the display to be sorted on the order of that column.
* When sorting on the Report Deadline column, sorting is done on the date and 12-hour-clock time. AM/PM is ignored.
* Execution of tasks is normally done in the correct first-due-done-first order.
* This bug has been present in several of the recent BOINC versions that I have used.

This is a known bug. http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/ticket/166

Thanks for your report. I've updated the Trac ticket.

Still present in 6.2.14.
I could make rude remarks about the priorities of GUI-oriented programmers.
Forget the b*@@@!! graphics. FIX THE BUGS.
(Remarks targeted at BOINC programmers, who are probably at Berkeley, not WCG).

See also my comments in Uploads occasionally get stuck, BOINC 5.10.30, and 5.10.45

Rickjb,

The place to make rude remarks is where they ignore bug reports wholesale: Berkeley.

According the Trac Ticket that Didactylos linked to, it is now scheduled to get a fix in 6.4.
