I would like to add the following entries to my diary file:

2009-05-29 11:00 Doug comes around to see me
2009-06-05 17:15 Doug comes around to see me
2009-06-12 10:00 Doug comes around to see me
2009-06-19 14:15 Doug comes around to see me

so that I am notified shortly before each of these appointments.  Note
that my preferred format for dates is YYYY-MM-DD with a 24-hour time.
What do I need to do to get these appointments online?

In Emacs 23 you will be able to simply customize calendar-date-style to
'iso.

In Emacs 22, you must customize diary-date-forms (after loading
calendar.el), eg:

(setq diary-date-forms
  (cons '(year "-" month "-" day "[^0-9]")
  diary-date-forms))
