Ah! Excellent! I was just about to hit the Send button on my reply to your
last message when this came in! ;)
Yes, they do "sort of" mention it, but I agree, it's obscure. The
downloadable SDK docs for ExpirationDate mention that the date format has a
'Z' on the end to indicate universal time (I guess "Zulu"?), and the updated
online docs now state that "Dates in licenses are in Greenwich Mean Time
(GMT) and must be formatted as follows:". I guess they realized it wasn't
clear and tried to make it better.
Glad you got it working. :)

Cool - got it working 100% - GMT +2 !!
I needed to subtract 2 hours from the license expire time - which
effectively gives me a historically outdated license - which expires 2 hours
ago - if that makes sense to you!
Perhaps this is something Microsoft overlooked? Should be mentioned
somewhere in the documentation?
