As Jellby said, the only formats allowed by the EPUB (2) standard are YYYY, YYYY-MM and YYYY-MM-DD.

Please observe that this choice makes sense, as all of them are unambiguous, while '7-01-12' might be interpreted as:

A) the 7th day of January (20)12, or
B) the 1st day of July (20)12, or
C) the 12th day of January (20)07,

depending on whether you are European (A), American (B) or Leonardo (C, but just kidding).
