One of the advantages of RavenDB is that the documents format is highly human readable. Except for one thing. Can you tell me what date is represented by this value:

/Date(1224043200000+0300)/

I thought not :-)

We have recently moved toward this format instead:

2011-04-04T11:28:46.0404749+03:00

Which it both machine and human readable.

This make figuring out what something is so much easier.
