2. if this works as expected, why not make DateTime a wrapper around python datetime objects? is DateTime optimized for storage in the zodb (maybe a separate question to the zodb-dev list)? what was the intention to create DateTime anyway, if there's a python pendant already?
This idea had been discussed already for Python 2.4 or Python 2.5
I mean: Zope 2.4 or Zope 2.5, not Python ....

i looked at the source of DateTime::strftime(), surpirse, surprise :) strftime uses python's datetime class and it's strftime method! but no care is taken at this time for timezone information, so i decided to code a tzinfo subclass for datetime that can represent fixed offset from gmt (no dst) and hand one such instance to datetime.fromtimestamp(). seems like this code is working correctly now. i'll run it against some tests tomorrow and report back on the results. regards, juergen herrmann _______________________________________________________________________
