Ok, here's my customisations for anyone who's interested. These changes to the replaceDates function do the following

• Droped the seconds - the shouts are displayed in order anyway, my users don't care if a shout was 3 or 49 seconds ago
• Changed the date format to dd-mon , easier to read, all months are 3 letters helps keep it aligned at the month turnover.

// replaces <date> tags
function replaceDates(s) {
	var ret = "";
	var matches = s.match(/<date>\d+<\/date>/g);
	var months=['Jan','Feb','Mar','Apr','May','Jun','Jul','Aug', 'Sep','Oct','Nov','Dec'];

	for(var i = 0; matches != null && i < matches.length; i++) {

	var utc = matches[i].match(/\d+/);
	var date = new Date(utc * 1000);
        
        ret = ret + s.substr(0, s.indexOf(matches[i]));
	ret = ret + (
                        date.getDate() + "-" +
			months[date.getMonth()]) + " " +
                        ((date.getHours() < 10) ? " " : "") + 
				date.getHours() + ":" +
                        ((date.getMinutes() < 10) ? "0" : "") +
				date.getMinutes() + " ";

                s = s.substr(s.indexOf(matches[i]) + matches[i].length);
            }
            ret = ret + s;
            return ret;
}
