Comment 8 for bug 692285

You are right, would be better a consistent format, but IMO this is
not so easy to do... You have to change the event class, the load/save
method in brickfactory and the GUI. Then test everything deeply. It's
better to delay this change after the release. At present all is
working pretty good, the only feature missing about events is the
actions update when you configure an existent event (the delay is set
instead). Furthermore, even if the vb-command line is
inconsistent/complicated for the GUI is the same thing (the commands
"add"/"addsh" never appear in the GUI).

Regards.
