How to get Evolution to accept dates in the YYYY-MM-DD format in the
Birthday field? I do not have the Gnome desktop installed. Note that
this is the date format set in locale:

karmic1 at kubuntu:~$ locale
LANG=he_IL.utf8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="he_IL.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="he_IL.utf8"
LC_TIME=en_DK.utf8
LC_COLLATE="he_IL.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="he_IL.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="he_IL.utf8"
LC_PAPER="he_IL.utf8"
LC_NAME="he_IL.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="he_IL.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="he_IL.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="he_IL.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="he_IL.utf8"
LC_ALL=
karmic1 at kubuntu:~$ date +%x
2009-12-03
karmic1 at kubuntu:~$

Thanks in advance
