What I've seen in parts of Africa is DMY format with the month being in Roman numerals (i.e., 11/X/2022 today), which avoids the ambiguity of M/D/Y vs. D/M/Y. On Tue, Oct 11, 2022 at 8:59 AM Fred Gleason via tz <tz@iana.org> wrote:
Even weirder (from a strictly parochial American POV) is a convention I’ve seen in German documents from the the early/mid-twentieth century (and perhaps today?), where the year would be expressed in Roman numerals. Thus: s/19-7-1932/19-7-XXXII/.
Cheers!
