Some suggestions:

1: Instead for Right-Clicking for switch between AM/PM and 24h-Mode, make it open the Calendar instead.

2: Add date into the tooltip

For some reason this addon kills the GroupCalendar button. Disable this addon and GC works fine. Enable it and the GC button is gone. Also get an error relating to time button.

Why does this addon include stuff like LibFuBarPlugin-3.0? I thought it was a broker addon?

1. is a good suggestions. Take a look at version 1.01. As for the date, that has already been there.

The GC-Button is being hidden once this addon loads (should not be needed anyways?). Can you tell me the error-message?

Errors

Upon logging on I get this error as seen by BugGrabber, English client ,Fresh first time install

2009/02/18 16:01:56-3743-x1]: Broker_Timear-1.01\Broker_Timear.lua:162: attempt to index global 'TimeManagerClockButton' (a nil value)

And I get this one when I Alt-Right Click to switch to 12 H format

[2009/02/18 16:05:21-3743-x1]: Broker_Timear-1.01\Broker_Timear.lua:104: attempt to index field 'BrokerTimearConfig' (a nil value)
Broker_Timear-1.01\Broker_Timear.lua:138: in function <Interface\AddOns\Broker_Timear\Broker_Timear.lua:133>

Also the switch to 12 H format is not being saved between sessions. Once I log off and back on the time resets to 24 H format.

And a suggestion. Can you color the separator line between the realm and local time? Sometimes the line looks like a number one and so close to the time makes it looks like 11 rather than a one.

It's needed so I can open GC? Clicking your time display by the minimap just opens the regular time frame. How else would I load GC?

The error I'm getting is:
[2009/02/18 19:11:02-1650-x1]: Broker_Timear-1.00\Broker_Timear.lua:112: attempt to index global 'TimeManagerClockButton' (a nil value)

Very nice.

Feature request: Make it highlight in some way when I have a notification on my calendar so I can completely remove the minimap calendar button.

Thanks for the detailed error-messages, Xylan Trueheart. Helped a lot! Therefore you will now have a colored seperator (if your default-color is something different than white that is).

Even though I could not reproduce the error there are now some work-arounds in place. Should work for the moment - but the frames might not be hidden anymore.

Nice idea. I will look into it.

Thank you much for correcting the errors. Works now. Question though my separator bar is still white. Is this changable/configurable?

And a request if possible. You have the European date format dd/mm/yy. We Yanks like to have it as mm/dd/yy Thanks for the quick response.

WTB Ability to remove the AM/PM text when in 12h format.

I mean come on. If you don't know whether it's day or night out... you're playing incredible too much.

Edit: Or even (Or also!) a way to remove the space between it and the time.

So... I added somewhat of a customization-functionality. However, due to my disbelief in a configuration-interface for something you only want to setup once, you will have to manually create a file called custom_config.lua in the addons directory. There is a sample_custom_config.lua coming now with the latest version which you can just copy and edit to your liking.
As for your specific requests you would have to put in the following.

Seperator is white by default. And I still should get used to that weird us-date-format (moved here recently)...
However, to get a yellow seperator and white text and that funky date you want to put in custom_config.lua this stuff:
Code:
BrokerTimearCustomVars = {
	["color_1"] = "|cffffffff",
	["color_2"] = "|cffffff00",
	["date_format"] = "%A, %x",
}

This would be done like this (with a dot for PM, can be empty as well):
Code:
BrokerTimearCustomVars = {
	["unit_am"] = "",
	["unit_pm"] = ".",
}
Worked for me. Hope that helps for you guys.

I'm also curious about this.
