Also the GH bot is using DD/MM/YYYY date format :-( whyyyyyy?Because github is international, and everyone but the US seems to agree that ``` /\ / \ / \ / day \ /________\ / \ / month \ /______________\ / \ / year \ /____________________\ ``` is preferable to ``` __________ / \ / month \ /______________\ /\ / \ / \ / day \ ___/________\___ / \ / year \ /____________________\ ```
I much prefer YYYY-MM-DD (or YYYY.MM.DD) because:1. It's consistent with HH:MM:SS and other instances where there are multiple units (they go from largest to smallest).
2. It's easier to sort them. 3. It removes the confusion over whether it's DD/MM/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/QIEETJHYC5Z7AXXSE6NBKY3CJG7VN6SO/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
