That format is the ISO standard date-time format.  The modern way to 
work with date-times in Python is to use the datetime module, so:

 >>> import datetime
 >>> d = datetime.datetime( 2004, 4, 21, 15, 05)
 >>> d.isoformat()
'2004-04-21T15:05:00'

You can use datetime.datetime( * mytuple ) to auto-unpack your tuple, btw.

HTH,
