Description

FastDateFormat.getInstance("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZ", TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT-05:00")).parse("2014-12-15T19:50:00-05:00");

This will work on 3.3.2, however, when I upgraded to 3.5 it failed like this:

Exception in thread "main" java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: 2014-12-15T19:50:00-05:00

This made me suprized and I have to carefully check my unit tests to see whether upgrade to 3.5 is reliable.
