No, the best is following the ISO standard. That's what they are for, standards.

Not Realy .
The ISO standard of YYYY/MM/DD is not the most efficent way of using a date
example " you want to know the date you look at the ISO standard date you have to wade thru the year the month to find the day date normally the most used part of the date string whereas DD/MM/YYYY the important bit is right at th front of the string DD then you can read the rest if you need it ..
YMMV Mine dont

Now, if you want your computer to sort on date, which method works best? With ISO, the most significant value is on the left, just like all other numeric calculations. If you were to write the numbers for a dollar fifty, would you write $50.1 ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
