NEWS excerpt:

  - 1.26p6 | 2006-07-03

    - Bugfixes for edb-t-timedate.el

      - `edb-t-timedate1:format-date' renders "%yy" correctly

        This used to render years as modulo 1900, resulting in more than
        two characters, for year 2000 and later.  For example:

        (defun (demo Y M D)
          (let ((date (edb-t-timedate1:make-date Y M D)))
            (edb-t-timedate1:format-date "%yy" date)))

        before: (demo 2006 5 31) => "106"
           now: (demo 2006 5 31) => "06"

      - Specialized formatting functions use format consistent w/ name

        Certain functions edb-t-timedate1:format-date-FOO used to use
        formatting codes inconsistent w/ their names.  Here is a table
        showing the change and an example for each FOO, using SPC as a
        separator between components (actual default separators vary):

        FOO       before (example)        now (example)
        ddmmyy    %d %m %yy "3 5 2006"    %dd %mm %yy "03 05 2006"
        ddmmmyy   %d %mon %yy "3 May 06"  %dd %mon %yy "03 May 06"
        yyyymmdd  %year %m %d "2006 5 3"  %year %mm %dd "2006 05 03"
