BTW, it occurs to me that I'd like to nuke the word "Date" (as I already nuked "Author" and "(view)"). Maybe add more padding in the stylesheet, too.

GvR suggests that Roundup's date format of "YYYY-MM-DD.hh:mm:ss" is unreadable, and proposes replacing the period with a space. See http://psf.upfronthosting.co.za/roundup/meta/issue182. Another possibility would be ISO 8601 (using "T" as the separator). WDOT? Compare: Date: 2008-01-23.14:06:34 Date: 2008-01-23 14:06:34 Date: 2008-01-23T14:06:34
