Moving to ISO Dates

I would suggests as, when not using the lagacy TWiki date format (DD Mmm YYYY), we use only the standard ISO date format: YYYY-MM-DD

See: http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime

The reason is that this format is unmistakable, compared to the / form that you can find as YYYY/DD/MM or YYY/MM/DD. It is also alphabetically sortable.

Optionally, one could use the ISO time format also: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD. Alas, it is not very readable frown Something like YYYY-MM-DD.hh:mm:ss would have been better...
