Congrats Paul! This one wasn't easy!

When Paul got promoted, I asked him if he could write a PEP about the
local timezone. Well, here we are ;-)

Paul: can I now also get nanosecond resolution? :-D
https://bugs.python.org/issue15443

Oh, and leap seconds?
https://bugs.python.org/issue23574

I commented there: "One option to explore is to add a "leap seconds"
field to datetime.datetime which can be negative (just in case someone
decides to add negative leap seconds in the future)."

OMG handling date and time is so hard!
