-----------------------------------

             Summary: Date Properties incorrectly read as "GMT" timezone, 
should be "UTC"
                 Key: JCR-3530
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3530
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.6
            Reporter: Jeroen van Erp
            Priority: Minor


When writing a Date in a UTC timezone, the ISO8601 format correctly writes this 
with the suffix 'Z' indicating Zulu time. However when reading, the ISO8601 
format incorrectly changes the zulu timestamp into the 'GMT' timezone, which is 
not standard (anymore). This should again be the 'UTC' timezone.

Though these timezones are used interchangeably, the GMT timezone is no longer 
precisely defined, whereas the UTC timezone is.
