[2002-Feb-01] The ISO 8601 listings on the Open Directory Project are as up to date as I can possibly make them. If I have missed a useful site, then please...

I am trying to put a link on my webpage beside dates in ISO8601 format, to explain it and encourage others to use it. I figured the World Wide Web Consortium...
... I'd still like to put in a plug for Markus Kuhn's page. This is still the best succinct introduction to the ISO 8601 specification and its advantages that...
... [2002-Feb-04] As has been said here before, the ISO 8601 standard only covers fully numeric dates, and initially ISO only had machine to machine...
... Perhaps a distinguished 'good introduction' site (Kuhn's unless anything better comes along) plus one or more 'Cool Sites' which are not necessarily for...

... I second Ed's thoughtful suggestion. (Ian, is there some practical way to spotlight a link which isn't specified as a 'Cool Site' on your ODP page?...
Hi Ian - One site you may want to include and people will find useful if involved with E-commerce is ISO 8601 drop down menus. ...

Hi, ... There are links to a other website, e.g. http://www.halisa.net/cpt/d/AT2003.htm On this site the first week day is sunday. This is not ISO 8601...
[2002-Feb-10] I recently wrote to you about Date Formats on your web site at: <http://www.hb9q.ch/>. ... It is difficult to decipher these dates. Applying...
Peter - thank you pointing out that with ISO 8601 the week starts on a Monday. We have changed all the calenders http://www.halisa.net/cpt/d and provided links...

[2002-Feb-18] I have eventually discovered a place where ISO 8601 has been accepted for expiry dates in food labelling. However, the usage was not without...
Lest several of us duplicate the effort... I have written to the St Lucia Star concerning the article, which I find misleading as to the correct date format,...
... And for food labelling, it's a good idea to use the text 'YYYY-MM-DD' below or above the date, to make everything perfectly clear. -- Karl Ove Hufthammer...
2002-02-20 (per ISO 8601) [or '2.2/20 in my personal notation] Despite the fact that the date-time reference should really be 2002-02-20T20:02, the following...
... Well, since Japan and other countries use y-m-d when they are not using Japanese emperor date and the like, I think the answer is yes. And I can't resist:...
Thanks, Tex Tex. :-) A friend in Colorado insists on calling me "blam", so I should have expected that from a Texan. ;^> Apparently, I've been japped out of...
Apologies to the ISO8601 yahoogroups distribution. My previous message was intended as a private communication intended for Tex only (in continuation of a...

[2001-Feb-24] Many people recognise that the current calendar schemes have some flaws in them, and that there are many problems with date and time formats used...

The GYMD proposal is ridiculous for several reasons: -- It becomes useless after 127 years, as it cannot represent dates after year 2129. -- It cannot...
... Can't argue that ISO 8601 often requires leading zeros but the punctuation is not required. It defines two formats: "basic" which normally has no...
