[uf-dev] A sensible alternative for representing dates

[Jake Archibald]

> pattern, wouldn't have "machine data" presented to users as standard
> content, allows for flexible human-readable presentation (since it

> * <a class="dtstart" href="/2008/06/30/">June 30, 2008 at 1:00 pm</a>
> * <a class="dtend" href="/events/2008/jun/30">13:00</a>

The problem with this is it requires an anchor, and requires the author to
build a meaningful page at that address.
