Thanks Jakub and Geoffroy,

Done. I thought I should bump the number if I'd published the package
anywhere, evidently I was wrong about that.

Done. Note this is what the file created by dh_make has (although that
could have been updated in a newer version than I have).

Done.

Done.

Done. Again, dh_make.

I've added an extra space before the numbered section so it won't be
word-wrapped. Is there another problem?

The packaging deletes it, so I'd assumed it doesn't need license
information. Upstream doesn't mention anything specific, and looking
at python-dateutil, there's no license information for it there
either.

Done.

Patched, will forward upstream.

Will check with upstream. The LICENSE file is BSD.

No - it was made in python-dateutil and apparently not forwarded.
Upstream's version is cross-platform (Windows has a date command), so
I guess it's not something the whole package would want.

I think this is a consequence of our removing the zoneinfo data file.
It should probably be patched to use a system copy, but
python-dateutil seems to live without that functionality.

Thanks, I didn't know how to do that. I've added docs and examples to
the package.

Best wishes,
Thomas
