I wouldn't say ISO 8601 is unsupported. Only that in some cases the grammar definitions would allow easier usage from external text elements - from a config file for example. Similar to the pattern syntax symbols/tokens, but in a less granular manner which would make conditional parsing easier. It would also be less ambiguous since the hierarchical definitions are explicit.
Appendix A. ISO 8601 Collected ABNF date-century ... period config.file format=/var/log/date-year/date-month/date-mday vs. config.file format=/var/log/YY/MM/dd ... format=/var/log/YYYY/MM/dd >From the application side you can enforce the tokens and do substitution easier than char parsing. Log4j ConversionPattern, does this from the properties file essentially doing the same thing Joda does for char parsing.
