As I see it, we have the ISO way - your recommendation - which goes from most significant to least, and increments right-to-left.

I bet Tony will be back Monday, July 9. He's in Australia, where the DD/MM/YY date format is used. This is why the U.S. military has used DD MMM (e.g. 9 Jul 2007) for decades to avoid confusion.

I will be out of the office starting 04/07/2007 and will not return until 09/07/2007.

This was brought home to me once when I was in Europe and bought a prepackaged sandwich. I looked at the sell-by date when I was about halfway through and for a moment thought it had gone bad months before.
