<jcranmer> I think the feature from HTML 5 that I most want implemented, as a web developer, ...
<jcranmer> <input type="date">
<bz> yeah
<bz> patches accepted!
<db48x> meh
<db48x> dates are more trouble than they're worth
<bz> but seriously, we do need to get working on that
<jcranmer> I know <video>, <audio>, and <canvas> are all nice and sexy, but a standard cross-browser way to input date values is vital to anyone doing any intranet applications
<bz> yeah
<bz> it's better to do arranged marriage instead, clearly!
<db48x> very droll
<db48x> there's no such thing as a standard date
<JonathanS> that input type get the today date?
<jcranmer> I'd work on it but a) I don't know content and layout enough and b) I have enough projects on my hand in mailnews
<bz> db48x: ;)
<bz> db48x: you're right that date input is a mess...
<joe> there is so a standard date
<joe> 2008-10-02
<joe> bam
<db48x> you can't even normalize the number of days in a month
<bz> joe: only one standard?
<joe> bz: yep, iso 8601
<jcranmer> WF2 is what I'd really salivate over
<bz> joe: as in, there is only one standard for dates?
<bz> joe: I know at least several de-facto standards
<joe> bz: there's only one standard though :)
<bz> joe: plus the one you cite (not actually used by most people in daily life)
<bz> joe: and I wouldn't bet money that there are no other de jure ational standards
<bz> joe: you have an odd definition of "standard"
<db48x> February 30th, 1712 is a perfectly valid date, if the event in question happened in Sweden
<jcranmer> <input type="date"> is already standardized
<joe> bz: an iso standard is not a standard?
<bz> joe: please read what I actually said
<jcranmer> and Mozilla has a near-reference implementation with <xul:datepicker>
*bz has always been partial to October 30, 1917
<bz> as a date that doesn't always exist
<smontagu> for me today's date is 5769-01-04 -

<Major_Small> an MLA style entry for this could be: lastname, firstname. IRC interview. Dec 12 2006.
<Major_Small> he'd have to know your real names though
<db48x> db48x is my real name
<biesi> db48x, go sue your parents
<sdwilsh> firebot: db48x
<firebot> sdwilsh: Well, db48x is just some guy or mailto:... (Daniel Brooks)
* sdwilsh glares at db48x
<db48x> firebot: lies!

<hyatt> i can't get the windows xp disk out
<hyatt> and my mac is now stuck in a mode where it wants to boot it
<hyatt> so i don't even know how to recover my mac
<Pavlov> hyatt: take it to the apple store and tell them you're david hyatt
<MacDome> hyatt: http://guides.macrumors.com/Force_Eject_a_Stuck_CD_or_DVD
<hyatt> the fact that there even has to be a guide for a problem that CANNOT EVEN OCCUR ON A PC points out how lame this is
<hyatt> "Hi, mmm-fmmm--fff." "And I'm a PC. What's wrong, Mac, you seem to have something stuck in your mouth?" "Mfff-mmffff!" "Ah, when a disk gets stuck in me, you can just press the eject key on the drive." "Mffff! Mfff!"
