Talk:News and Projects

Please have a look at WikiNews, how news are managed. I tried to do it here in the same way. Would be cool, if we could do it in this way every time in the future. -- Prodatron 01:57, 28 August 2006 (CEST)

We really should use YYYY-MM-DD format dates rather than confusing users with what might be DD-MM-YYYY or MM-DD-YYYY -- David Cantrell, 2006-09-15

Wow, David, so glad to see you here... By the way, I'm the one your old 464 with the 6128 ROMS went to... Could never thank you enough. Please do register!

Anyhow, I'm not sure I'm getting the distinction - it's a very fine one, between YYYY-MM-DD and DD-MM-YYYY, or am I missing something? I'd instictively go for YYYY-MM-DD because it's great for filename archiving etc, but I'm not sure about such practicality here? Gryzor 16:22, 16 September 2006 (CEST)

Ahhh I see what you mean - just read your WACCI/csa8 meeting entry; but, living in Europe (the vast majority of us anyway), we're all used to the DD-MM-YYYY convention - only the Americans use the MM-DD-YYYY anomaly, isn't it so? Gryzor 16:24, 16 September 2006 (CEST)
