Standards for date / time values?

Thu Feb 23 12:11:58 CET 2006

Hi - 

I'm working with a suite of date attributes that can include a
combination of precise dates, imprecise dates, and ranges of dates (and
the same types of time values). We'd like to follow existing standards.
If this sort of date / time standard exists, I'd appreciate leads to the
appropriate resources.

Thank you for your help -
Lynn
