The summary: * Tighten up date unit vs time unit casting rules, and integrate the NPY_CASTING enum deeper into the datetime conversions * Determine a unit when converting from a string array, similar to when converting from lists of strings * Switch local/utc handling to a timezone= parameter, which also accepts a datetime.tzinfo object. This, for example, enables the use of the pytz library with numpy.datetime64 * Remove the events metadata, make the old API functions raise exceptions, and rename the "frequency" metadata name to "timeunit" * Abstract the flexible dtype mechanism into a function, so that it can be more easily changed without having to add code to many places -Mark
