Bug #2406: Regression in RSS 2.0 creation
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/2406

Author: Petteri R��ty
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
ruby -v: ruby 1.8.7 (2009-06-12 patchlevel 174) [i686-linux]

I used to be able to use Strings for dates in ruby 1.8.6 but it doesn't work any more:

<pre><code class="ruby">
i.date = (d >> 1).strftime('%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z')
</pre></code>

Results
