A version of the python-datetime module which deeply cares about timezone (instead of ignoring the problem). The module automatically detects your current timezone using a variety of different methods.
The module also includes extra functionality;
- Full integration with pytz (just give it the string of the timezone!)
- Proper support for going to/from Unix timestamps (which are in UTC!).
- Smart Parsing which attempts to accept all formats.
This module depends on:
- pytz - For providing the Timezone database.
- dateutil - For providing parsing of many common formats.
