So, now that I've thought about this a bit more -- my question turns to
this: If DateTime::Format::Japanese is where my original idea is
supposed to go (which I agree, now that I know of its existance),
wouldn't that effectively mean that that's where all of the
DateTime::Language::* functionality also should go? Aren't the
functionalitites in those modules also formatting -- why are month names
and day names any different from other locale/language specific notation
like what I mentioned in my previous mail?
I think I'd feel better if all of that locale/language specific stuff
was in one place? Maybe strftime() should be absorbed there ...?
e.g.
my $english =
DateTime::Format::English->format_datetime( $dt, $template );
## instead of DateTime->strftime()
my $japanese =
DateTime::Format::Japanese->format_datetime( $dt, $template );
(just tossing some ideas...)
