Description

For certain feeds (for example http://xml.metafilter.com/rss.xml), gregarius has been adding an hour to the timestamp since EDT. Feeds that work fine seem to specify the publication date in UTC, ie:

<pubDate>Wed, 05 Apr 2006 02:59 UTC</pubDate>

Here is the publication date from the feed with the problem:

<pubDate>Wed, 05 Apr 2006 07:47:37 -0800</pubDate>

I'm not sure if that is what is triggering the problem, but that is the only difference I've noticed so far.

This is with svn revision 1405

this makes me think Mefi is the culprit here. Got any other feeds misbehaving?

I subscribed to the feed just now and it gives me the right time. My server is currently 7 hours behind GMT (in california) and I get the right times from the metafilter posts (which claim to be 8 hours behind GMT) in its feeds.

Please feel free to re-open if we have made a mistake.
