[LDM #QMJ-238932]: pqact dates still wrong

Hi Harry,

> I think the pqact code that figures out the month is STILL wrong.  Although my

I don't think you're missing anything.  The problem is that there's
just no way a single algorithm can perform correctly with the
day-of-month field given all the problems that can occur.  In your
case, the data-product in question must have been more than a day and
a half in the future (or the algorithm's broken :-).

I'm working on a replacement algorithm.

Steve Emmerson
