New submission from Terry J. Reedy: "time.timezone The offset of the local (non-DST) timezone, in seconds west of UTC (negative in most of Western Europe, positive in the US, zero in the UK)."
Quite aside from #9305 (UTC is not a place), this does not specify the effect of setting this attribute. It does not change the output of localtime, asctime, or ctime (on Windows). Does is affect anything else? strftime? If setting it has no effect, the doc should say so. (And then perhaps it should be made read-only in the future, as setting it expecting an effect would be a bug.) ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 170450 nosy: belopolsky, docs@python, haypo, terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Time module: effect of time.timezone change versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15941> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
