I am trying to read date strings from various documents using NSDate. The dateWithNaturalLanguageString is very handy, but I can't seem to find anything in the API that handles ISO 8601 dates.

ISO 8601 dates are hell to implement! First of all, the standard is extremely flexible, and this has its price. And second and more important, ISO 8601 dates are actually not dates, but time intervals. This makes it really hard to work with... Oh, and did I mentioned the time zones? ;-)


have fun
