Well, if you guys are discussing date formatting issues, I'd like to bring up something myself. I didn't have the time, yet, to make a patch (SORRY!), but to fix a little problem it would by handy if there was also a getRTime() method for relative timestamps. When formatting relative timestamps the timezone information is irrelevant and results in not so beatiful values to be printed out (+/- n hours) . Yes, I know, this is a minor thing, but it would be nice to have and quick to implement. What do you think?
