date filter not adding appropriate + / - sign for 'Z' timezone offset resulting in invalid ISO 8601 #1532

Hmm, just tested in CET (UTC+1) and properly getting
2012-11-23T23:06:19-0100.@TraeRegan I think you are right, there is something fishy going on here... According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601:
The offset from UTC is given in the format ±[hh]:[mm], ±[hh][mm], or ±[hh]. So if the time being described is one hour ahead of UTC (such as the time in Berlin during the winter), the zone designator would be "+01:00", "+0100", or simply "+01".
and then
To calculate UTC time one has to subtract the offset from the local time, e.g. for "15:00-03:30" do 15:00 − (−03:30) to get 18:30 UTC.
So in my case (GMT+1) it looks like it should be giving
2012-11-23T23:06:19+0100while it gives2012-11-23T23:06:19-0100. It looks like the sign is flipped, there is a similar issue opened already for this: #1261On top of this the
+sign is never added.- added 2 commits that reference this issue

See jsfiddle example here: http://jsfiddle.net/traeregan/C82QB/
e.g. the output I get in EDT is:
2012-11-06T01:29:290500But it should be:
2012-11-06T01:29:29-0500
