    Expected:

    Year: 2010

    And why is this a bug? The backslash is no proper character for date formats within Zend_Date.

    I think the point is that one can't escape letters, to make sure they're displayed on as-is basis.

    But a feature which is not supported is not a bug. It's a not supported feature.

    So "new feature" would be the expected issuetype in my opinion.

    http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/… There absent information about this behavior, then i expect 100% working of my old php date formats.

    Lets add some information to documentation.
