Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

     http://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org-mode mailing list.

The function `org-timestamp-format' returns bad values:

    (org-timestamp-format "<2015-10-07 Wed>" "%d %B %Y")
    "30 November -001"
    (org-timestamp-format "[2015-10-07 Wed]" "%d %B %Y")
    "30 November -001"
    (org-timestamp-format "[2015-10-07]" "%d %B %Y")
    "30 November -001"
    (org-timestamp-format "<2015-10-07>" "%d %B %Y")
    "30 November -001"
    (org-timestamp-format "2015-10-07" "%d %B %Y")
    "30 November -001"
    (org-timestamp-format (current-time) "%d %B %Y")
    "30 November -001"
    (org-timestamp-format (org-parse-time-string "[2015-10-07 Wed]")
                          "%d %B %Y")
    "30 November -001"


I tried this for my latex export filter, and got the same output for the
timestamp in the second example:

    (defun gk-ox-latex-format-inactive-timestamp (text backend info)
      (when (org-export-derived-backend-p backend 'latex)
        (org-timestamp-format text "%d %B %Y")))

I get the expected result from this piece of code:

    (format-time-string
     "%d %B %Y"
     (apply #'encode-time
            (org-parse-time-string
             text)))
    "07 November 2015"

I see two commits that affect this function, visible here:

http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/log/?qt=grep&q=org-timestamp-format&showmsg=1

One of them adds it, the other one refactors it, without changing the logic.
