What about optional date_epoch on items ? #153

IMHO, date_epoch is the most portable date format acros platform, OS. etc. It's easier to convert to other human readible format. Maybe at version 1.2

I think the current format is more standard and easy enough to parse, and it's also human-readable if someone is looking at the feed directly. Thanks for the suggestion, though!

one of important factor compared to rss or atom is that json is easier for machine to read. so, IMO, human readable format less important machine readable format
