If one simply replaces the 'T' with a space and trims it after the '.', IIRC, it parses fine. -- H On Oct 23, 2017 15:16, "Mike Miller" wrote: > Hi, > > Could anyone put this five year-old bug about parsing iso8601 format > date-times on the front burner? > > http://bugs.python.org/issue1587

Hi, Could anyone put this five year-old bug about parsing iso8601 format date-times on the front burner? http://bugs.python.org/issue15873 In the comments there's a lot of hand-wringing about different variations that bogged it down, but right now I only need it to handle the output of
