+Summary: System.DateTimeFormatInfo Does not honour literal escaping properly.
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Use this code in C#:
+
+DateTime ModifiedDate = DateTime.Now;
+Console.WriteLine( ModifiedDate.ToString( "yyyy-MM-dd\THH-mm-ss\Z" ) );
+Console.WriteLine( ModifiedDate.ToString( "yyyy-MM-dd\\THH-mm-ss\\" ) );
+
+2. Compile
+3. Run.
+
+Actual Results:
+
+Results gotten for the first WriteLine is an error. a second slash is
+needed, when the documentation on MSDN clearly denotes a singular slash
+followed by the literal.
+
+The second result returns no slashes, when it should. Again, an extra slash
+is needed.
+
+Expected Results:
+
+A Date with a the chars T and Z somewhere in it. Second Date with two
+slashes in it.
+How often does this happen? 
+
+
+Additional Information:
+
+bug affects the Release Candidate (1.0) and 1.0
