Sorry, I don't think that's possible.

Hi everybody,
indeed, the date format is currently wrong (only US format despite of the selected language).
Previously the date format displayed by selecting French was the ISO format (yyyy-mm-dd).
Because of this bug, I am currently unable to maintain my own statistical report.
Earlier during the summer, we discussed already this point and it was mentioned that in the future dates will be displayed only according to ISO-8601.
I think that it was a fair agreement and many of us are using the WCG statistics for performing some dedicated reports as well as for performance monitoring.
PLEASE ! Patch the web-site soonest as possible in order to provide again the ISO format at least for one language.
If I remember correctly, it is only one parameter to set accordingly.
Have a nice week-end !
Cheers,
Yves

Hello Didactylos,
I'm wondering about this "featurefull" implementation.
I do not pretend being a "standard user" but let me describe my usual configuration:

• Windows : English version
  
• Location : German Switzerland
  
• Date format : yyyy-mm-dd (according to ISO)
  
• Date separator : - (see above)
  
• Decimal separator . (instead of ,)
  
• Firefox : English version
  
• Firefox default language : English US
  

You can imagine how uneasy it is for the WCG web site to evaluate correctly the used date format !
I will not ask how time consuming was the current implementation, ensuring that it works more or less satisfactorily with the various combinations of browser, operating system, languages, ...
Instead to invest time for not requested automatisms, I would have appreciated to be able to fetch my results in XML formats (what it requested by many of us since already a long time but still not implemented).
I am really disappointed about this evolution in particular regarding the development of not requested features and at the same time neglecting user's requirements and wishes.
I hope this situation can evolve in a better way during the next time.
Cheers,
Yves

PS: By the way, the year is only displayed as short (and ambiguous) 2-digits format instead to use the full length 4-digits representation.

OK !
I accept to change the default language setting in Firefox from US-English to something different, for example like French.
The problem is that the date does not appear in a correct format.
Because of the missing century, Excel is confused by taking over the date and produces a big mess interpreting the dates sometime as "yy-mm-dd" and sometime as "dd-mm-yy".
PLEASE ! Avoid minimalism !
I agree that I am probably not a "standard" user with a "standard" configuration. But the previous implementation was OK and fitted for many of us. We found some solutions for minimizing a little bit the effort of producing statistics.
This new (and approximative) implementation destroy the efforts previously done and it does not reflect the discussions during the summer about this point.
If the techs are really overworked, why did they invest so much time for a sophisticated solution instead to keep the previous implementation or to switch consequently to ISO ?
I repeat, I am terribly disappointed having to fight for such simple requests like I have to fight in my daily business with "close-minded" IT departments.
Usually, I do support, encourage and thank the tech-team. In this particular case, I cannot do this and I disagree with the provided solution.
A possible workaround would be to add "ISO" in the language selection in order to satisfy everybody.
At this time, I am unable to maintain anymore my statistics with reasonable effort.
Cheers,
Yves
