Wow. I don't know what I was smoking there.

According to MBK, lack of ISO 8601 support is part of the problem.
But what you describe above is also a problem, I agree.

I think we really need to get that STATUS file under version control
right now, so we can start to compile a complete list of the proposed
changes. I'm finding it hard to evaluate this one without the others
around it.

I'll ask Jostein if he minds us starting it in the 0.35 branch, since
that leads directly to the 1.0 line.
