SyndicationFeed expects dc.date.issued to be available as a java.util.Date
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: DS-610
                 URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-610
             Project: DSpace 1.x
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.6.1, 1.6.0
            Reporter: Robin Taylor


SyndicationFeed calls DCDate.toDate() which returns a java.util.Date. This is 
only currently possible because DCDate stores all dates as java.util.Date even 
if they were only entered as year or year+month. On the assumption that we fix 
DCDate what do we do about SyndicationFeed ? I am guessing this date ultimately 
appears as a 'published date' in an RSS feed. Either it should use default 
values for month and day if not available, or it should ignore incomplete 
dates. I think the latter is safer. Any thoughts ?
