Hi Premshree,

PP> Some rework may be required for the pubDate, though. The to-idate

TO-IDATE should probably be fixed then, if RFC822 is the spec it's
targeting. How about this for a quick patch?

to-itime: func [
    "Returns a standard internet time string (two digits for each segment)"
    time [time!]
    /local form-num
][
    form-num: func [num] [either 1 = length? num: form num [join #"0" num] 
[num]]
    rejoin [form-num time/hour ":" form-num time/minute ":" form-num round 
time/second]
]

to-idate: func [
    "Returns a standard Internet date string."
    date [date!]
    /local str
][
    str: form date/zone
    remove find str ":"
    if (first str) <> #"-" [insert str #"+"]
    if (length? str) <= 4 [insert next str #"0"]
    head insert str reform [
        pick ["Mon," "Tue," "Wed," "Thu," "Fri," "Sat," "Sun,"] date/weekday
        date/day
        pick ["Jan" "Feb" "Mar" "Apr" "May" "Jun" "Jul" "Aug" "Sep" "Oct" "Nov" 
"Dec"] date/month
        date/year to-itime date/time ""
    ]
]
