I'd like to just quickly and with a minimum of parsing (ie no screen- scraping) get a unix epoch timestamp (or another format if necessary).
I thought with a quick second search on Google I'd find a URL where I could do a simple urllib2 based HTTP GET and have a timestamp returned to me. I don't want to use NTP. I need this because I want to run it on an embedded system where I don't have a local timesource, but do have a network service. I'm very low on memory tho. I can set up my own service on django I suppose, and just render back the timestamp from datetime.time() but SURELY someone else is already doing that? My googling has fallen flat. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance! -Ross. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
