James,

The proposed recommendations looks wonderful. The only thing which I 
would have wished for is a "format-date" function

  string format-date(date-string,from-format,to-format)

to allow date/time conversions... horribly useful buggers. The formats
would be as specified by the Java 1.1 SimpleDateFormat class:

Thanks!

Clark
