The first difficulty

I started pulling out the time elements from the Parser produced XML. Even looking at three examples, things aren't obvious. For example, when multiple days are in the text, the Parser tries to figure out ranges and what not. Also, it seems to put the text for day and time together without a space. Speaking of which, day's are given in a strange format like "XXXX-WXX-1" for Monday, til "XXXX-WXX-7" for Sunday. Time's are given in a 24 hour format, like "T03:00" for 3am or "T19:00" for 7pm.

To simplify things, I may try to find regulations that meet these criteria:

1. Says "no parking"
2. Has two time slots.
3. Does NOT have the work "except" in it.

Let's see how many such entries there are.
