For me (and the company I work for), Dave is correct. I'd love to use DateTime, but until it is as fast as Date::Calc (and more mature than current), we'll stick with Date::Calc with a custom wrapper to add some of the functionality of Date::Manip. Date::Manip and several other modules we tried were too slow.
