-----------------------------------------------
Summary: When a timezone is provided in a Date, it should be
stored as provided
Key: SLING-4347
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4347
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Servlets
Reporter: santiago garcía pimentel
Whenever a POST request is made and it contains a date string with a timezone
in it. Sling turns it into the JVM local time and looses the provided timezone.
The only exception for this is when the date is provided in the ISO8601 format,
which uses a different date formatter.
Sling should instead preserve the date as it is provided.
This happens because Sling uses a SimpleDateFormat object to parse the Date
string, which returns a date object.
We could follow an approach like org.apache.jackrabbit.util.ISO8601 to achieve
this.
