Toodledo,

I may be doing something wrong, but I used to be able to type short words (fri, sat, mon, next mon) in the due date field and have them recognized. Now if I type those, I get "no date" when the popup date picker goes away. Have those been de-supported? Is the only valid input now a m/d format date?
