#to_json(options = nil) ⇒ Object

This date format sorts lexicographically and is compatible with Javascript’s new Date(time_string) constructor. Note this this format stores all dates in UTC so that collation order is preserved. (There’s no longer a need to set ENV['TZ'] = 'UTC' in your application.)
