The downtime is picked up fine, and correctly, in the "info" test on

I've run into issues with this in the past. The code that
parses the DOWNTIME for the info page seems to be different
from the code that actually implements it. Things that show
up correctly in the web view won't necessarily work. I forget
what's different about the syntax, but I know I've mentioned
it on the list before. If you search for posts from me on
DOWNTIME, hopefully it'll explain.
I believe this has been improved now in the 4.3.0 tree. (See my message from
5-Nov-2010.) From what I've heard 4.3.0 seems to be very close to release,
so you may want to try it. I suggest the best way to get the latest fixes is
to check it out with subversion. (Search the mailing list for instructions.)
Kind regards,
