My default "sort MR by age" view in Okular is now unusable since there's suddenly a bunch of MRs that are now 2 days old instead of 9 months old.

That makes me very unhappy and more unproductive.

And i guess it basically breaks your code since next month those MRs are not without updates for 2 weeks because you just linked to them last week?

How can we fix that?
