For example, GLEP 1 says: "The Created header records the date that the GLEP was assigned a number, Last-Modified specifies the date that the GLEP was last updated in the master branch, while Post-History is used to record the dates of when new versions of the GLEP are posted to the appropriate mailing list. All three headers should be in ISO 8601 yyyy-mm-dd format, e.g. 2001-08-14." Dates should be in the UTC+00:00 time zone, not in any local time zones. Patches will follow.
In principle, this also applies to the copyright year in GLEP 76.
Created attachment 853924 [details, diff] glep-{0001,0002}: Specify that all dates must be in UTC
Created attachment 853926 [details, diff] glep-0042: Specify that "Posted" date must be in UTC
Please review attached patches. Should I post them to the ML and submit to the council for approval, or does this still qualify as editorial clarification?
CCing council. If nobody speaks up against it, I'll push these changes after the council meeting in March.
