R. David Murray added the comment: Hmm. I thought there was a PEP, but maybe datetime was from before PEPs because I did find a PEP when I searched. I don't have specific pointers to discussion, that's why I suggested you search first. I'm pretty sure I remember a discussion of this some time in the past five years, but I have no idea which list it took place on. If you don't find any relevant thread, start one. I'm going to nosy Tim Peters and Andrew Belopolsky; they may be able to save you some time by speaking directly to the issue.
However, changing this is probably ruled out by backward compatibility concerns, regardless of anyone's (modern) opinion on the design. ---------- nosy: +belopolsky, tim.peters _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28878> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
