Since the implementation of PEP 495, it is possible to represent the 23:59:60 as 23:59:59 with the "fold" bit set. Of course, the repeated 23:59:59 will be displayed and behave exactly the same as the first 23:59:59, but a 3rd party library can be written to take the "fold" bit into account in temporal operations. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
