<P>
Utility class supplying static methods. Date serialization is based on the
 algorithms published by Peter Baum (http://www.capecod.net/~pbaum). All date
 handling is done according to the W3C Schema specification, which uses a
 proleptic Gregorian calendar with no year 0. Note that this differs from the
 Java date handling, which uses a discontinuous Gregorian calendar.
