Well, stopwatch functionality could be quite useful completely separately from anything representing a date and time, so if you have something good, and it doesn't have licensing issues, I'm all for having it in Phobos. High precision timers can be quite useful. As for the date and time functionality, I started on an implementation shortly after my initial question yesterday, and I already have more functionality than std.gregorian has completed, though I still have a ways to go. I've never looked at the Tango stuff, so if what I do is acceptable, it won't have the same issues that yours unfortunately did. When I have something complete enough to be properly useable (though probably not with all of the functionality that we'll eventually want), I'll post it here. I hope to have that within a few days, if not sooner. As it is, I'm likely going to have to implement something similar in C++ for work one of these days soon anyway, so that our newer products won't have the same time issues as the old ones. Historically, we've had to fix time-related bugs just about every time DST rolls around. - Jonathan M Davis _______________________________________________ phobos mailing list [email protected] http://lists.puremagic.com/mailman/listinfo/phobos
