Hello,

In my Java web application using Grails and the Ext js framework, I'm
trying to display a grid with dates in french; so I realize that in a
RSS feed, dates are in RFC 822. In Java, the RssSyndicationFormat uses
the utility methods DateHelper.parseRFC822 and
DateHelper.formatRFC822.
But the FeedSync specification says that "All date-time values MUST
conform to the Date and Time specification of RFC 3339".
Is this format will be take in account in Mesh4j?

Thank you,

Bertrand.

FeedSync dates are required to be RFC 3339, yes, by design.
However, your RSS reader should not care about FeedSync data format.
Tondat: we should make sure that if we're projecting date-time values
into the RSS space (i.e. lastUpdated) we do so in the RSS spec defined
format.

Thanks Bertrand!
