Unfortunealy, no. I think most devs/other regulars will agree that I'm a very easy-going person, and I take most things with a smile. Your post is different. It's no 'hey guys, I got some issues, please address them'.

We often get very experienced programmers here, and 99% of them manages to express their concerns/problems/ideas in a non-offending way.
Feel free to post as you wish on your blog, but please drop that attitude when posting here.
I'm still a youngster - and I lack a lot of the expertise which you do posses, and as such I'm not offended by your statements - but showing the minimal amount of respect for other devs by being polite when posting in their forum is one of the qualities I imagined at least all great OS developers had in common.

As for the fixing issues thing: of course deficits and bugs should be fixed, and of course they are totally unrelated to your attitude - I meant 'while you do something about your attitude, we'll (try to) fix these things'. But that was not the point I was making.

WW will automatically use date conversion (DateFormat.MEDIUM of your Action's Locale) when printing a date. The datepicker tries to do its own Locale determination and formatting - the mismatch between those two is causing the problem - afaict.
