CF2021 adds new dateformat mask values of M, Y, and D (vs lowercase m, y,
and d). The first two seem to show no change, <b>but the new "D" is VERY
significant</b>, if you may have code that always used D or DD, when case
didn't matter and was ignored.
<p>
Notice how in CF2021, the 2nd and 3rd lines here produces a VERY
different result for the day (for D vs d), though no difference for
M vs m or Y vs y<br>
<b>dateformat("11-23-20","m-d-y"):</b>
#dateformat("11-23-20","m-d-y")#<br>
<b>dateformat("11-23-20","M-D-Y"):</b>
#dateformat("11-23-20","M-D-Y")#<br>
<b>dateformat("11-23-20","MM-DD-YY"):</b>
#dateformat("11-23-20","MM-DD-YY")#<br>
