I stand corrected. I stopped used MySQL for anything important back around version 3.something, after it ate my data once too often. The fact remains however that Postgres handled a much broader date range, including dates before the dark ages, and that it properly understands timezones. Timezones have existed since before the Unix epoch. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
