Perhaps you are right. On the other hand, even assuming the presence of correct "incdate" values for certain files, obtaining a list of the most recently included items in the natural order does not appear to be possible with the current MinimServer options.

This seems a bit strange to me given the already enormous number of control options available in MinimServer. Perhaps some composability is missing, somethingthat would allow filtering a sorted list or sorting a filtered list. These seem very natural operations.

Anyway, thanks for looking into this issue! I'll try to add a default "incdate" value to those files that have none although this is not easy with standard tagging tools!
