Subject: Year 1900 bug


Greetings!

I am sweeping the draft for application/implementation -> evaluator 
purposes and encountered:

> Applications *may* reproduce the 1900-as-leap-year bug for 
> compatibility purposes, but *should not*.
>
I suppose it is the combination of a permission with a recommendation 
against following that permission that strikes me as odd.

Perhaps better:

"Applications should reproduce the 1900-as-leap-year bug for 
compatibility purposes only."

Yes?

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Patrick
