I would not replace those 4 formats, I would *add* 4:
    mm-dd-yy   (U.S.A.)          short form
    dd-mm-yy   (Canada/England)  short form
    yy-mm-dd   (Japanese)        short form
    yymmdd     (Scientific)      short form
    mm-dd-yyyy (U.S.A.)          long form
    dd-mm-yyyy (Canada/England)  long form
    yyyy-mm-dd (Japanese)        long form
    yyyymmdd   (Scientific)      long form
