R. David Murray added the comment: Supporting ISO 8601 is quite different from supporting RFC2822 dates, as far as I can see, and the latter clearly belongs in the email library (especially considering that RFC2822 parsing must follow Postel's Law and accept "dirty" data).
If you want to open an issue to add ISO 8601 support (as opposed to RFC 3339's 8601 profile+timezone-deviation that is already covered by issue 15873) to datetime, go ahead. I haven't read enough to understand the details, so I don't know quite what that would mean, or how useful it would be. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5207> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
