CVS: tmda/htdocs config-vars.html,1.83,1.84: msg#00021

Subject: CVS: tmda/htdocs config-vars.html,1.83,1.84
Update of /cvsroot/tmda/tmda/htdocs
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv17081/htdocs

Modified Files:
        config-vars.html 
Log Message:
The Unix-style date strings in TMDA have been replaced by RFC 2822
compatible strings in all areas of the code for easier parsing.

The latter is more standard and more easier processed using any
RFC 2822 library (e.g, Python's email.Utils.parsedate()).

It's also more descriptive since it shows the UTC offset.  The
previous format didn't distinguish between two timezones with the same
name.  So for example Sydney, Australia and New York City were
undistinguished since they are both "EST", even though they are 16
hours apart.  Very misleading.

- Before:

NYC: Sun Jan 11 02:32:08 EST 2004
SYD: Sun Jan 11 18:32:08 EST 2004

- After:

NYC: Sun, 11 Jan 2004 02:32:08 -0500 (EST)
SYD: Sun, 11 Jan 2004 18:32:08 +1100 (EST)
