Like I said, I don't use the datetime module. But fundamentally, an
aware datetime represents an instant in time - which is exactly what a
POSIX timestamp ("time_t") represents. So I can't offer exact code for
working with them, other than to say that time.time() is precisely
accomplishing the same job. Maybe there needs to be a recipe posted
somewhere saying "To create a datetime from a POSIX time, do this".
This is simple:
>>> time.time()
1389242048.669482
