ISO 8601 RFC 3339 (yyyy-mm-dd) for storing dates in software. Any format that that goes in the order of day, month, and year for conversational/presentational purposes, preferable the format is dynamic depending on the user’s locale (even for those that want the month first). There now everyone is happy.
Edit: switched to RFC 3339 since it is a subset of ISO 8601 that is more strict, and I love semantics.
