WK> This may get listed as -07-08 or -07-06 depending on the timezone.

this is the reason why I usually write the month with its
(abbreviated) name instead of its number: this avois the confusion if
01-07 is in the middle of winter or in the middle of summer (7th
Januar and 1st July are quite distictive).

Maybe GPP can do something like this as well.

Bye,
Michael
