Bugs

'later' and 'someday' brake taskd sync

Do not use sched:later, wait:someday or similiar when syncing with taskd. This will break the sync with an error referring to an invalid date of 253402...

Fix: You need to login to the taskd instance and correct the data for dates starting with either 253402 or 9999.
