Hi, 

The date is indeed stored in ISO format. However, on an author running in UTC 
making changes from a machine running in a different timezone (I picked 
randomly, GST which is UTC+4), the Date component shows local time, but stores 
it as the UTC time, so my content would be activated 4 hours late.

I shall raise an issue in jira and hopefully add a patch. (Currently on 4.2.2, 
CE)

Toby.
