* Your local publication time stamp is converted to universal time (GMT or UTC)
for use in the sitemap. The +00:00 is there to tell search engines that the time
stamp should be treated as universal time.
* There is no option to change this.
* By the way, the `` tag is not part of the XML sitemap protocol. Are
you maybe talking about the date in your normal RSS feed?
