I am trying to parse various date and time formats using the

trouble looks like this:
2008-06-26T11:00:00.000-07:00
Specifically, the time zone offset isn't covered by the format
parameters
given. I can almost parse it with this:
%FT%X.000
But that doesn't take into account the "-07:00" bit. I'm sure
this has
been solved - can someone point me to the solution? Thanks in

Try %z
(see http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/libraries/time/
Data-Time-Format.html#v%3AformatTime for all the format specifiers).
Is there anything in the parsedate library?

parsedate is obsolete, unless you have ghc < 6.6.1. It was
rewritten to become what is now the date parsing code in the time
package.
Hmm, perhaps I should clarify this: parsedate and time-1.1.1 (which
comes with GHC 6.6.1) have different APIs. parsedate produces
CalendarTimes, and the code in time-1.1.1 produces the new time and
date data types. So I guess parsedate isn't actually obsolete,
rather, it's for use with the package currently known as 'old-time'.
