REST API issue: Scheduled post's status doesnt change from "future" to "publish" even after the time is overdue

[tsiddhi]

API Link : "​https://developer.wordpress.com/docs/api/1/get/sites/%24site/posts/%24post_ID/";

steps to produce the issue :

1) create a new post by providing a future date to "date" parameter and "status" parameter as "publish" for the following API : ​https://developer.wordpress.com/docs/api/1/post/sites/%24site/posts/%24post_ID/

2) It creates a new post and returns its status as "Future".

3) Once the future date-time is overdue, still the getPost API returns the "status" of that particular post as "future".

Ideally, once the provided scheduled time is overdue the status should be returned as "Published"

REST API is not a part of WordPress core yet.

This should be reported to WordPress.com: ​http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/.

As usual, Sergey beat me to this by a few seconds.
