** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu)
       Status: In Progress => Triaged

** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu)
     Assignee: Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) => (unassigned)

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: gconf-editor
+ indicator-datetime, Ubuntu 12.10
  
- The Ubuntu Gnome Clock offers no setting to "show year".
+ The Ubuntu menu bar clock offers no setting to "show year".
  
  Yes, I know what year it is, but I have very good reason for wanting it
  shown. For years, I've been collecting screen-shots, when I'm doing
  something I think is pretty cool. When I use to use windows, these
  screen shots (over the years) have always showed the current year.
  
- However, since April of 2007 (The date I started using Ubuntu exclusively), my screen shots have not included the year, because the Gnome clock doesn't provide this capability.

Bug description:
  indicator-datetime, Ubuntu 12.10

  The Ubuntu menu bar clock offers no setting to "show year".

  Yes, I know what year it is, but I have very good reason for wanting
  it shown. For years, I've been collecting screen-shots, when I'm doing
  something I think is pretty cool. When I use to use windows, these
  screen shots (over the years) have always showed the current year.

  However, since April of 2007 (The date I started using Ubuntu
  exclusively), my screen shots have not included the year, because the
  Gnome clock doesn't provide this capability.
