Hello, Python library reference 6.11 says, "The epoch is the point where the time starts. On January 1st of that year, at 0 hours, the "time since the epoch'' is zero. For Unix, the epoch is 1970."
To me this seems to suggest that the epoch may vary among platforms and implementations as long as it's consistent. Am I correct? For example, does it make sense to file bug reports to Python projects assuming that time.time() returns seconds since the Unix epoch? I am asking because currently Python and IronPython returns very different values for time.time() even if they run on the same computer and at the same time.
