Stefan Guggisberg commented on JCR-1386:
----------------------------------------

-1 for System View Import accepting non-spec compliant date formats.
it's not clear how an incomplete date value should be properly expanded
(e.g. missing time zone, assume Zulu or current TZ?). the result of
a System View Import would become somehow unpredictable.  

however, i wouldn't be opposed to adding conveniance methods to ISO8601.

> Not full parsing of ISO8601 date/time format that may cause import of XML to 
> fail

> Currently Jackrabbit allows only strict string values for date fields. The 
> weak point is at handling milliseconds. JR allows only strictly 3 digits, but 
> according to ISO8601 and to XML Schema data types definition milliseconds can 
> be any number of digits and it just defines fractional part of the second.
> So, these are valid date strings which will not be validated by JackRabbit, 
> but they are valid according to ISO8601 and also will be validated by XML 
> Schema if selected data type is xs:dateTime:
> 2008-01-01T00:00:00
> 2008-01-01T00:00:00.0
> 2008-01-01T00:00:00.00
> 2008-01-01T00:00:00.1234
> 2008-01-01T00:00:00.1111111
> Another weak point is that time part is not mandatory as well according to 
> ISO8601, so, these dates are also valid ISO8601 and also will be validated by 
> XML Schema if selected data type is xs:date;
> 2008-01-01
> 2008-02-01
> 2008-03-01
