When I first started using this recipe to get The Age onto my Sony PRS-T1, I noticed that often the dates on the downloaded books were wrong by a day. Guessing a bit, I changed this line:

Code:

 'date' : strftime('%a, %d %b')

to:

Code:

 'date' : strftime('%a, %d %b %Z')

Adding the time zone to the date seems to have fixed the problem. Would this problem have only affected certain types of readers? And would adding this fix to the source recipe mess anything up for those previously unaffected?

If not, how would I go about get this fix added to the distributed version?
