<p>Hey folks,<br>
<br>
Just thought I'd draw your attention to my recent proposal to add
IANA (e.g. /usr/share/zoneinfo) time zone support to Python's
standard library: PEP 615 ( <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0615/">https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0615/</a>
).<br>
<br>
I sent out the proposal today, discussion is happening on the
Python discourse: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://discuss.python.org/t/3468">https://discuss.python.org/t/3468</a></p>
<p>There is a reference implementation for the proposed module here
(in Python): <a href="https://github.com/pganssle/zoneinfo">https://github.com/pganssle/zoneinfo</a><br>
<br>
Any feedback on the proposal would be very welcome -- as many of
you can imagine, it can sometimes be hard to get too much feedback
on time zone and datetime-related proposals because a great many
people (probably rightly so) are just happy that someone <i>else</i>
is thinking about it so they don't have to. The discourse is the
canonical location for the discussion, so commenting there would
be best, but beggars can't be choosers, so I'll happily pass on
comments made on this list or sent to me personally.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Paul<br>
