My first though was "that's just 4 October; I expect all URIs redirect".
But they don't all redirect, so that is interesting (and presumably why that date).
EDIT: `/tenfour` doesn't redirect either..?
Though, to be fair, the `IMAGES` array has everything stored under 'tenfour' directory, still, I imagine it's just a code name for the project, given the release/announce date.
I use that format to sort my picture folders. So, sorting by name sorts by date as well.
Additionally, I add the month text (mmm) as well to the date, which makes it easy for me to quickly recognize the month, otherwise I mostly have to count :(
So like, 2016-09(Sep)-19
That way, the sorting still works, and I get to see 3 letter month abbreviations as well.
What's funny is since in work I mainly use SQL timestamps, and I live in Japan (which uses numerical months in their language), I actually have trouble with the named months now. Like I keep mixing up which of June and July is first...

I have the exact opposite: if I see a date with the name of a month I mentally convert it to the month number first.
Windows Live Photo Gallery got this more right than anything else I've seen.
You could filter by folder and display by date, or ignore folders and filter by date. And it had an easy UI for filtering by tags (that were pulled from photo metadata, not stored in an internal database).
(I suppose I bring it up because it worked well enough to make manually fiddling with sorting photos mostly uninteresting)
I've known the month numbers since early childhood. Dates were often read as "the twentieth of the ninth, [twenty] sixteen", especially if they were being written down: 20/09/2016.
Though now I see it can't make sense if read in the American order.
