Summary: XMLRPC support extended iso8601 DateTime Format

Initial Comment:
Currently the XMLRPC::Convert module does not support DateTime Values 
with separating '-' characters between year/ month and month/ day of 
month.

Unfortunately some programs use this format. Egroupware produces Strings 
like this: "2006-05-06T12:10:30".

I would suggest to change the regexp from:
/^(-?\d\d\d\d)(\d\d)(\d\d)T(\d\d):(\d\d):(\d\d)$/
to:
/^(-?\d\d\d\d)-?(\d\d)-?(\d\d)T(\d\d):(\d\d):(\d\d)$/

Kind Regards,

Felix Leipold
