Yes! Except that I was hoping for something a little stronger, like "the epoch must be 1970" or "the epoch can be anything you want, but you're utterly retarded if you pick something other than 1970". But I'll definitely settle for "much prefer". :) Thanks, -Curt -- Curt Hagenlocher [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
