Hi,
Currently 'date -Iweeks' does not display the ISO 8601 standard's week
format. Neither does it support the ordinal format in that standard.
Attached to this message you will find a patch for this issue. The patch
has been made against latest git master branch. The patch itself is
trivial.
Please consider applying it coreutils.
Kind regards,
Rami Lehti
