There may be some confusion because %z is in the table of strftime and strptime format chars on the 2.7.8 docs at https://docs.python.org/2/library/datetime.html#strftime-and-strptime- behavior but I suspect it's only applicable to strftime in that release. -- Denis McMahon, denismfmcma...@gmail.com -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
