Indeed.  However, RFC1036 is currently being reformed, and perhaps we
can get the next RFC to allow (or recommend) ISO 8601 dates.

To subscribe to the mailing list, send a mail to
"usenet-format-request@clari.net".  I have yet to work out how to send
a mail to the mailing list itself; they have a weird filter thing set
up.  Or something.  There were no instructions in the sign-on message,
and there were no bounces.  I think the messages were simply dropped.
I'm not amused.
