Hi :)
I use it quite a lot.

It makes sorting files a lot easier.  If all files were created or modified
on the date that is most relevant to the contents of the file then it would
be quite simple but life is seldom that simple ime.

Of course no-one in my office understands.  They prefer to have everything
from August waaay before anything from March.
Regards from
Tom :)

Well, I often see it, particularly on government forms.  On the other
hand, I have often seen dates and wondered what format it was, as there
is nothing to indicate it or the date it actually represents.  Some
times I can guess, based on context or by looking for other dates to
determine which format makes sense. i.e. a number greater than 12 is
likely not a month.  ;-)

Given the amount of international interchange, even ignoring the fact
that local custom is often not followed, the only way to be sure is to
use the ISO spec and nothing else.  Isn't it also part of that ISO
certification that companies follow for business practices?
