i am getting the feeling that there is quite a tendency in lojban to
overspecify things. i consider date formatting to be beyond the realm of the
language itself, just like alot of the metaphysics we tend to talk about. so
instead of embossing a specific world view into lojban we should concentrate
on making as much as possible easily and clearly expressible.  


I take that for support for what we have -- or for using any old format at all and glorking.  We're stuck with having a format and the argument is which one to have.
