Why Golang time format (RFC-822 in this case) is different from the one described in the RFC?
In time package RFC822 const value is defined as:
RFC822 = "02 Jan 06 15:04 MST"
11 Nov 09 00:00 CET
But regarding to RFC-822 or w3.org Validator date format should be rather as RFC1123:
RFC1123 = "Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 MST"
Wed, 11 Nov 2009 00:00:00 CET
or even better:
RFC1123Z = "Mon, 02 Jan 2006 15:04:05 -0700"
Wed, 11 Nov 2009 00:00:00 +0100
Because the Central European Time Zone (CET) is not correct in this RFC.
Why such a difference? I'm writing an RSS server and it took me a while to figure out why I'm getting badly formatted results.
