Re: Temporal.pod truncate

I think that :to should stay as-is; it truncates to whatever the .week method returns, and that's Monday-based. It would be too inconsistent for it to do anything else. Asking for the latest prior Sunday or any other weekday is a useful function, but it doesn't really have anything to do with 'tr

Temporal.pod truncate

Small feature request: $dt.truncate( :to ); is somewhat ambiguous, since some people start their week on Sunday, while the module truncates to Monday. Would you consider a less ambiguous week truncation? $dt.truncate( :to ); $dt.truncate( :to ); ~ John Williams

A new era for Temporal

We (mberends and masak) just pushed a commit to S32::Temporal which completely replaces what we had before. The changes are rooted in hours of discussion on #perl6, and we feel rather more confident with what we have now than with what we had before. That said, discussion is very welcome. I do wa
