Comment (by iandunn):

 [attachment:"4480.diff"] is a WIP that adds `date_utc` and `end_date_utc`
 fields to the response, with Unix timestamps. The local `date` and
 `end_date` fields are left, for back-compat.

 I played around w/ using RFC3339, because I agree it's more correct for
 future dates. In this context, though, it doesn't seem likely to make an
 impact, and it seemed to add extra complexity between the different data
 sources, syncing, converting, etc.

 I agree that greenfield code should use it, though.
