   Sorry for a late response, been on the road all week...   
      
   Actually that would be incorrect. For ISO standards on UTC, the use of + is   
   only required due to the fact it is appended directly to the end of the   
   seconds. Otherwise a 0500 appended to 11:30:22 would make a mess of parsers   
   "guessing"... for example 11:30:22500 and 11:30:220500 are invalid.   
   11:30:22+0500 is correct.   
      
   However, you also cannot use "+" should be there because another platform uses   
   it. I spent 20+ years making a living developing to RFC standards, and thus my   
   interest in FTSC... to try and help. FTSC is much easier to read, the   
   challenge is conflicting specifications... even in the current documents.   
      
   FYI: ISO 8601 did not state the "+" as required in section 3.4.2 prior to the   
   2004 edition of the standard. And FTSC-4008 was written prior to 2004 also,   
   and for our platform (FTSC) it's rules govern our platform not vise versa.
