You're correct that there is no year 0, but as you see Apple does use <date>0000-12-30T00:00:00Z</date> in their plists. I did not set that in order to test plistlib; it's what I found on my system. If it's a goal that plistlib be able to parse system-generated plists and round-trip them to an equivalent serialization -- and I think that should be a goal -- then using strings or None also won't work. Maybe there could be a plistlib.Datetime for dates which are outside what datetime can represent? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41083> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
