Re: [ferret_users] 30-FEB with 360_day calendar

[Brockmann Patrick <Patrick.Brockmann@xxxxxx>]

Sorry. My question was confused and had kept traces of tries I have made 
to identify the bug.

To resume and of course with a correct syntax for february month (ie 
FEB) and specification
for calendar (ie /cal=360_day), I get an error with ferret v6.08.
Unfortunately this is the ferret release used in our production mode.

This is now ok with the last release aka ferret v6.20.
But I confirmed that it is a bug in release v6.08

Have a nice week-end.
