Interesting; though I'm not sure what advantage that [using Planck's Consta=
nt] would have.

I've heard that ISO 8601 [representing time, intervals, periods, etc] is go=
ing to be updated this year. Since this is something that my current projec=
t will need, albeit tangentially, I'm planning on making an implementation =
of it (though possibly augmented w/ scheduling).
