I _doubt_ there is code expecting the default year when unspecified to actually be 1900. Change that default to any old year with a leap year (1904?) and it'll still (a) stand out as a special year that can be looked up should it wind up being _used_ as the year in code somewhere and (b) not fail every four years for people just parsing to extract Month + Day values. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue26460> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
