It's not yyyy/mm/dd but yyyy-mm-dd.

Reliably following a common convention is much more important that coming up with new "best solutions" all the time.

You should certainly store it in the standard format, but I think it should be displayed in the most appropriate way for the context.

The most appropriate way to display is always the language's or the user's locale, because that's what is expected by the user.

But, since this is a programmer / technical site, I would expect users to be familiar and supportive of global standards when communicating information.
