Does anyone know what is the standard practice to use for the time on
RSS feeds?
There isn't one. It's a mix of RFC-822 and ISO-8601. Now that's
according to the specs - implementations are even worse. It's
_supposed_ to at least be labelled with a timezone, but even that's
optimistic for some feed generators.
RSS is a swamp. Read the Wikipedia article and follow the links from
it, especially the "Dive Into Mark" blog ones. Don't expect standards-
conformance from live RSS though.
Given the choice, dump the lot and switch to Atom. At least the Atom
people knew how to write a consistent spec.
