Inconsistent Timezone Format | 2023 | Timezone format is not consistent across the tables in FOLIO, which impacts LDP and Metadb. Nassib confirmed that he does not change timezone settings as part of the ETL with the LDP/Metadb software, so whatever is in FOLIO is what we get in LDP/Metadb. RFC-3339 sitting with TC about always representing times as an ISO date format https://github.com/folio-org/rfcs/pull/13. Issue is closed, but this does not mean the issue is resolved.
