[georss] GeoRSS and time

[Mikel Maron]

In RSS 2.0, the format of pubDate is specified by RFC 822 http://asg.web.cmu.edu/rfc/rfc822.html#sec-5  
 
For example, Sun, 19 May 2002 15:21:36 GMT 
 
According to the RSS 2.0 spec, future dates are valid.


And in RSS 1.0, they use dc:date, which is in the W3C DateTime format (the same as Atom)

Yes, at least for Atom. The answer is at 
http://atompub.org/rfc4287.html#date.constructs: 
 
A Date construct is an element whose content MUST conform to the "date-time" 
production in [RFC3339]... Such date values happen to be compatible with the 
following specifications: [ISO.8601.1988], [W3C.NOTE-datetime-19980827], and 
[W3C.REC-xmlschema-2-20041028]
