Yes, but that would mean we have an implementation in stdlib that relies on a dataset which may not exist. That is just going to be confusing. Moving pytz into the stdlib doesn't solve anything, really. So why do it? It's not like pytz is hard to install. -- Lennart Regebro: Python, Zope, Plone, Grok http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64 _______________________________________________ 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
