in thread Does ISO8601 require a separator in the time if one is used in the date?

Thanks Eily. I had seen that, but frankly I'd rank DateTime modules above Wikipedia as an authority. I'm hoping someone can point to the spec, although I've looked at that in various places as well.


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.

    Well in this case they agree anyway :) . But I guess nothing beats a direct citation from the spec.

    I can't even find a single RFC that refers to this forced condition. Now I've started, I'm curious to find something myself here if possible...

      Why would you be looking at RFC for an ISO standard?

      The web standard that most closely resembles ISO-8601 is RFC3339, and it's far, far less flexible. It always required the ":" (among other things).
