Sorry, but no. I'm not really a fan of the datetime module and try to stay away from it whenever I can :-) Note that dealing with DST in timezones other than the local time zone, is bound to go wrong without direct access to the tz library. The C lib doesn't provide any good way to access timezone information other than the local timezone or UTC. When dealing with date/time values, it is usually best to stay with UTC and only transform those values into local times in user interfaces on the front-end client. Consequently, I'd suggest to only allow UTC and local timezone conversions for the method in the datetime module. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2736> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
