Talk:OpenHistoricalMap/Tags/Key/end date:edtf

This is an awesome page that we should push out in more communications. Also, in addition to our validator, what about just building tools to automatically convert unclear dates into edtf? e.g., a form with drop-downs? separate q's:

• We may not want to go too far in depth here, but it may be good to clarify why "Early" doesn't have brackets.
• Unclear (from the page) what the "Season" notation means when it uses "24" for Winter where MM would normally be.
• Isn't the indefinite date more of a circa than a some time before? "Almost 90 years" would seem to be more like a [1995..2000] or a 2000~ than a non-bounded [..2000], no?
• Need examples of single, double, and triple digit years.
• Do we support 5 or 6 digit years?
