Hello!

Here, I am suggeting a small (but probably useful) improvement to the 
EDTF specification. What do you think about adding the following new 
feature at #103 (or maybe #205)

2008-21/open

which could for example be really useful to store the publication date for 
a journal first issued in "spring 2008" and still publish four times a year 
(spring, summer, fall and winter - in any order)? The BNF could be really 
easily modified for that, just replacing

> L1Start = (date UASymbol?) | "unknown"

with

L1Start = ( ( date | season ) UASymbol?) | "unknown"

Regards!
