> > [Kevin Jacobs] Does obviousness come before or after following a spec? Would setting default values within range but to their minimum value (so if the month is not known, set it to 1 for Jan instead of -1) solve your problem, Kevin?

Well, I answered my own questions: "spec comes first", and "setting the default to 0 fixes it". If you need a quick fix, Kevin, I can personally send you a diff (contextual or unified, your choice =) with the change until this gets into CVS.

I will put a patch up on SF ASAP and email back here with the patch #.
