Well, date formats are not going to severely hinder interoperability.
You're being as naïve as Chad there. Business processes depend on
exchanging documents containing dates in a standard format.
No need to be offensive :) If I'm wrong just show me where I'm wrong and
I'll learn. Notice that I included the word *severely*. I haven't yet
seen dates become a severe problem, though I can certainly see how they
are a _problem_. And for that reason, I use a format that I know will be
inmediately understandable by my audience. Since my audience usually
comprises a mix of English speakers who can't agree whether to use
MM-DD-YY or DD-MM-YY, I usually pick DD-MMM-YYYY which they all get.
Cheers,
Daniel.
