Bug#61735: www.debian.org: mailing list search has y2k bug



Package: www.debian.org
Version: 20000404
Severity: normal

According to http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/: 

      Date filter
      Selecting nothing will search the most recent quarter.

But try searching for a recent thread, like "Signing Packages.gz" in
debian-devel. First, select no date -- no matches are found. Then select
the most recent quarter from the list -- matches are found.

I suspect it is figuring out the "most recent quarter" by ordering them
similarly to how they are ordered in the select box on that page, which puts
"Oct to Dec 99" at the top, and all the dates in 00 at the bottom.
