Description

When parsing json values in jsonperson.js date fields (currently dateofbirth only) are parsed the following way: value = new Date(jsonvalue); This requires the server to send values in a format parseable by Date.parse(). Unfortunately this does not handle values in ISO format (yyyy-mm-dd), what is used by php-shindig.

Upon accessing person.getField(opensocial.Person.Field.DATE_OF_BIRTH) one gets an Invalid Date error.
