ISO week number (%V)

[mbostock]

From http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man3/strftime.3.html:

The ISO 8601 week number (see NOTES) of the current year as a decimal number, range 01 to 53, where week 1 is the first week that has at least 4 days in the new year.

And:

%G, %g, and %V yield values calculated from the week-based year defined by the ISO 8601 standard. In this system, weeks start on a Monday, and are numbered from 01, for the first week, up to 52 or 53, for the last week. Week 1 is the first week where four or more days fall within the new year (or, synonymously, week 01 is: the first week of the year that contains a Thursday; or, the week that has 4 January in it). When three of fewer days of the first calendar week of the new year fall within that year, then the ISO 8601 week-based system counts those days as part of week 53 of the preceding year. For example, 1 January 2010 is a Friday, meaning that just three days of that calendar week fall in 2010. Thus, the ISO 8601 week-based system considers these days to be part of week 53 (%V) of the year 2009 (%G); week 01 of ISO 8601 year 2010 starts on Monday, 4 January 2010.

Also note that #7 (d3/d3#1811) proposes using %V for the signed year, but it seems like consistency with strftime is preferable.

We are also looking for this feature. Will it be available only in version 4.0?

[mbostock]

I have no immediate plans to implement this for 4.0, but if I were to implement it, it would only be for 4.0, yes.

I would like to use this feature, are there any updates on the status of this?

[mbostock]

No; if there were an update, it would be above.
