Ummm ... what might not work is arbitrary format strings for dates which was only partially implemented by aD. When I fixed things so the minimal functionality worked I did not tackle that as implementing it involves writing a format-string driven date parser.
But I don't think offhand that the format you're using should cause a problem.
sqldate is the acquire-side thing you need to translate a date string to the date type's list format. lineardate on the output side dumps the list as a string of space-delimited elements.
