Dates aren't parsed

The Gedcom5-converter takes a Gedcom5 Date tag
2 DATE 31 DEC 1965
and produces a date structure having only a gxc:original string element
<gxc:date>
<gxc:original>31 DEC 1965</gxc:original>
</gxc:date>
The GedcomX conceptual model, paragraph 5.2, specifies both an original string value and a parsed FormalValue, and includes the Gedcom 5.5 date format as "recognized". Gedcom5-converter should parse the Gedcom 5.5 date string and create the FormalValue element.

Good catch, and I agree this is an error. Even if the values are the same, the FormalValue should be separate from Original.
