Emacs Lisp date/time functions and RFC 3339?


From: T. V. Raman
Subject: Emacs Lisp date/time functions and RFC 3339?
Date: Wed, 8 Nov 2006 19:34:03 -0800

RFC 3339 
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3339.txt

defines a simplified/unambiguous  date/time format 
that I'm running into more and more on the Web.

The date/time handling functions in Emacs ---
calendar/time-date.el, together with the primitives for
encode-time and decode-time do not handle this format well, nor
does format-time-string.

Is there interest other than just me in getting some of this into
the core date/time libraries for Emacs? 

Note: this is not something that needs to be checked in before
releasing Emacs 22; on the other hand, if implemented, it would
be benign with respect to the rest of Emacs as it stands at present.
