Thingamablog

Localized versions of Thingamablog compile dates in an
invalid format.

In RSS 2.0 dates must follow the RFC-822
(http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc822.html). But in
localised version (or systems ?) the date format is
incorrect, because localized month name and day of the
week abbreviations are used instead of the "legal"
english ones.

Thus the computed RSS feed is invalid. You can see an
example here : http://home.etu.unige.ch/~robin0/rss.xml
Dates are in the format

mar., 05 avr. 2005 22:18:33 CEST

instead of

Tue, 05 Apr 2005 22:18:33 CEST


It would also be useful if Thingamablog could handle
W3CDTF (for RSS 1.0 feeds) as described here :
http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime
Now it cannot handle things like <$CurrentDate
format="dd-MM-yyyyTHH:mm:ssz"$> prbably because of the
"T" that prevents the blog from publishing. But this
would probably need a separated RFE ?
