General Settings:
Is it crazy, after 5000+ years of the week starting on Sunday, to have the default setting Monday?
I find it mildly irritating to have to remember to fix that setting. It almost seems like some odd developer had an agenda?

Wow, you learn something new everyday!! "Some years ago, the International Organisation for Standardisation specified Monday as the first day. " -London Telegraph.
I had no idea.
This map (First Day of the Week in Different Countries ) makes it look like half the world has to change the start day from the default!
I never did figure out if it was the first ISO 8601 in 1988 that changed it to Monday or when?

Since ISO 8601 sets Monday as the first day of the week and this is an option selected by the user, this petition will be closed. Monday is also the starting day of a business week. So I’m closing this petition.
