## MiGA Names

MiGA names are non-empty strings composed exclusively of alphanumerics and underscores. All the dataset names in MiGA must conform to this restriction.

## MiGA Dates

The official format in which MiGA represents date/times is the default of Ruby's `Time.now.to_s`, as generated by the CLI action `miga date`. In the \*nix `date` utility this corresponds to the format: `+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %z`.
