Ugh, I need to get into the habit of checking the issue tracker first. Sorry for not doing that this time.

The resolution of that issue is what I'm after, yeah. Also, yes, I meant colon instead of semicolon.

Thanks!

Can you show or point us to some examples of the types of dates that cannot be parsed? Do you happen to have the specification for those?

This is a known limitation. We don't have an strftime code for TZ in hh:mm format.  GNU date uses ':z' for this.
