The "strange" format in question is ISO-8601 - its very widely used. You can use SimpleDateFormat to reformat it in most way you please:

SimpleDateFormat inFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZ");
DateTime dtIn = inFormat.parse(dateString});  //where dateString is a date in ISO-8601 format
SimpleDateFormat outFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm");
String dtOut = outFormat.format(dtIn);
//parse it into a DateTime object if you need to interact with it as such

will give you the format you mentioned.
