Hmm, no clear ones here, I'm afraid.
No problem; thanks for the reply.
I had another think about this, and the part about being able to store the last verified date as a proper date type may be a red herring. Really, we should be doing this for _all_ metadata, i.e. storing it in the most appropriate form (integers for X and Y!) So I don't think we should necessarily single out the last verified date in this way.
A proposal: let's put all the last verified stuff in the metadata table, and get that implemented and finished. Then as a separate project, let's create additional metadata tables to store different types of data.
