We already have a plausible way to represent a particular month, e.g. Feb/2003. I'd like to be able to write:
30/(Feb/2003 + 3*month)
To get 30/May/2003. Slash isn't normal date separator in all countries. Anyhow, i like it.
Once again, I suggest to use a syntax closer to ISO 8601:
2003-MAY-30
Should IMHO be the most international representation we can find.

I forgot about the standard use of "-". IMO we should allow both usages, because some people may find 2003-MAY-30 - 10 confusing. I disagree, as well, with using an ALL_CAPS identifier for months. Probably should be 2003-may-30 -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting http://www.boost-consulting.com
