I'm working on this problem for similar reasons. The RSS date format
is RFC-822 and XML/XSD/XSL is ISO-8601. The weekday in the RFC-822
date makes it tricky to transform directly into ISO 8601 and vice
versa. I'm writing several date arithmetic and conversion functions
that will be available as open-source web services.

I will notify this list when the service(s) are available. I also have
a service registry feed (RSS 2.0) available at:
