Subject: Not all ISO8601 are supported
The module should support any format specified by ISO8601, while it currently only parses one of them. See this POD for a list of all possible formats: http://search.cpan.org/dist/DateTime-Format-ISO8601/lib/DateTime/Format/ISO8601.pod

The support of ISO8601 in XML-RPC is already broken, as the author of the spec (XML-RPC) detailed the expression of dates incorrectly. I will try to handle parsing of all the varieties that are complete expressions (that is, I can only use strings that specify full date and time), but I will still be limited to only emitting strings that comply with the XML-RPC spec.

Hi Randy, in order to work around the loose XML-RPC spec, I'd follow the Postel's Law (http://microformats.org/wiki/be-strict) by accepting any date/time format described by ISO8601. This would be needed to comply with your POD too, which tells the user to look elsewhere for the specification for ISO8601.

OK, now if you have the DateTime::Format::ISO8601 package available, RPC::XML::datetime_iso8601 will use it to try and parse the string you pass in, to see if it fits ISO 8601 beyond just the limited format I support. If it does, it stringifies it into the XML-RPC (broken) format and stores it. This will be in the next release. -- Randy J. Ray rjray@blackperl.com randy.j.ray@gmail.com
