Re: [calsify] Hebrew Adar II - "6L" or "6" ?

[Ken Murchison <[e-mail]>]

RFC 7529 only addresses how to specify non-Gregorian calendar date parts 
for iCalendar recurrence rules.  All full dates are still specified in 
the Gregorian calendar using the ISO-like format specified in RFC 5545.

If you're looking for extensions to ISO 8601 or RFC 3339 date formats, 
RFC 7529 doesn't do that.
