every date MUST be in RFC 3339 format. e.g. 2024-09-08, with optionally the time: 21:41:24+02:00

and hell no not ISO 8601 cause then people would use stuff like 2024W154

Thank you! Also nobody wants to buy a copy of an ISO standard

I think that ISO 8601 is available for free. But agreed that the RFC version is superior.

Would you allow long dates?

For example, Jan. 11, 2022, or 7 September 2010.

no, for cross-language interoperability. ok I just noticed that this breaks other calendar systems but well
