+Summary: DateTime.ParseExact difference parsing timezones with .NET
+
+Description of Problem:
+.NET parses timezones as +0200 or +02:00 although documentation says it
+should be the latter. Mono throws a FormatException when a +0200 is found.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+
+Compile and run the following code in .NET 1.1 and Mono
+
+DateTime.ParseExact("Wed, 12 May 2004 20:51:09 +0200", @"ddd, d MMM yyyy
+H:m:s zzz",
+System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-us"),
+System.Globalization.DateTimeStyles.AllowInnerWhite);
+
+Actual Results:
+
+A FormatException is thrown.
+
+Expected Results:
+
+.NET parses this, but not sure if implementing undocumented things is expected.
