ISO 8601



Innosoft just received a copy of ISO 8601 (1988) today.

This is a rather poorly written "standard".  It contains no formal grammar
-- it simply defines by example.  For this reason, I will oppose IETF
standardization of any document with a normative reference to ISO 8601.

I have no objections to using a profile of ISO 8601, as long as complete
formal grammar for the profile is included in the specification.  The
formal grammar in draft-ietf-calsch-csct-00.txt isn't precise enough yet,
IMHO.
