Format  T.MMMM JJJJ ?

Surely you mean "0DD. MMM YYYY"

In this case you would parse this date to extract the DD, MMM and YYYY as 
separate values, convert from MMM to a month number with a 12 month table, 
then re-assemble them into a tiddlywiki date/time string. I suggest 1200 or 
12 noon as the time, otherwise zero fill seconds and milliseconds.

eg D all before ".", 
Month split[ ]nth[2]
Year split[ ]nth[3] or last[]
