It's probably usually best to open an issue (or comment on an existing one) for discussion before preparing a PR to minimise the chances of it subsequently being rejected for a reason you haven't foreseen. We are always keen to welcome new contributors, and you'll find plenty of help and encouragement when you need it. > Of curiosity, may I ask why you chose "dddd" as the token for week date > number, instead of the "D" symbol used in the ISO 8601 formats notation? We don't currently use any single character tokens, originally to minimise the chances of triggering any boilerplate text in the template (ie, a format string could be "The year is YYYY"). Now that I started to write out the rationale for the choice of "dddd", I'm realising that perhaps I think "dd" might be a better choice. What do others think?
