> What's the status of DateTime in Zope3?

I am planning to add a datetime class to Python 2.3, and Zope will be
using that.  You can see how far we've got here:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/python/python/nondist/sandbox/datetime/

There's also a Wiki with lots of design notes for this version:

This *will* happen, it's just a matter of me & Fred Drake finding time
(or someone else being willing to finish the work -- basically, we
have to finish translating the datetime.py code into C).
