Yes: Year-Month-Day. It is the ISO standardized order (and as a bonus it
is easy to sort on, and unambiguous).

You are using Emacs, where the latest release cycle was 6 years, so 1.5
years surely is a short amount of time to you? ;-)
The conservative users (or the users that do not need/care about newer
features) usually run the non-developement version, while the rest of us
take the chance and run the developement version (currently called "No
Gnus") - knowing that bad things may happen(tm). My experience is that
it very seldom breaks.
