  a message of 17 lines which said:

Those are RFC 3339 dates.

It took thirteen messages for someone to notice that there is an IETF
standard for dates and that the IETF uses it on its own Web
pages... People should spend more time reading published RFCs :-}

Fair enough. Inspired by this I actually read the RFC. I find it quite amusing that in an RFC that basically says "thou shalt always use YYYY-MM-DD", the actual code in appendix B is the following:

char *day_of_week(int day, int month, int year)
{
...
}
