About the RFC 1123 Date Format
Date and time values returned by the Approver.com Web Services API are formatted
according to the RFC 1123 standard.
An RFC 1123 date/time value looks like this:
Tue, 10 Dec 2002 22:11:29 GMT
Note that Approver.com's servers are synchronized to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) which
may be different than the time zone in which your application executes. The time
returned by a call to the Approver.com Web Services API will always be a GMT value.
Approver.com avoids making use of absolute date values as a semi-crafty dodge to avoid having to deal
with the vagaries of time zones, summer time (known as daylight savings time in
the U.S.), and so forth. Instead, we use relative time values such as "4 minutes
ago," "a second ago," and so forth. You are, of course, free to adjust
this time value to the local time in which your application is executing.
