That's leafnode's man page. 
$ whatis rnews | sort -u
rnews (1)            - receive news from a UUCP connection
rnews (8)            - sort batch files into spool

The first is from INN, the second from leafnode

It's one of the possible ISO 8601 incarnations. 

See http://www.iso.ch/markete/8601.pdf for the full specification (it's
available for free), see http://www.iso.ch/markete/examples.htm for
examples. See http://www.uic.edu/year2000/datefmt.html for some
