I like what you've done. It's very similar to what was done in Tango. I
hate to ask this, but I just want to verify that you did not base your
code on Tango, especially since you have used Tango.
In D2 the runtime of Phobos and Tango have being merged, so all D programmers
can install both libs. So the two libs must have distinct contents.
So I'm for removing the time module from Phobos, and keep only the Tango one.
So this module is waste of time, and efforts have to be redirected in improving
or rewriting the time module of Tango.
Othrwise in D2 it will happen the same mess it's happend in D1, where you have
two partially duplicated libs. All D2 programmers will want to install both
libs, and they will not desire to choose what time lib to use. One time lit is
enough.
I don't think anyone should have to install an extra library just to
figure out what time it is.
