Hi Clive / Rajshekhar,

These dates are completely normal. See: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#UTC

Basically it is a way of describing date / time fields in a timezone neutral 
way.

year-month-day T (to denote the start of the Time part) hour:minute:second Z 
(zulu time)

Therefore the contents of your database appear to be fine. When you view an 
item, are the dates correct in there - is it just the browse screens that 
appear wrong?

Since upgrading, have you re-indexed your browse tables? Step 10 of the upgrade 
instructions (http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch04.html#N10FE6) says 
to run:

 - [dspace]/bin/dspace index-init

You could look in your browse index tables bi_* and see what values they are 
holding. Are they holding the expected dates in the format you would expect?

Thanks,
