Hi there, We at one point were fiddling with mx from eegenix, for psycopgDA. We found out the hard way that the mx.h headers in the DateTime were being put in a funny place. Perhaps that may give you a clue.

I checked the license, and the eGenix Public License is GPL compatible, so that we can use it for Zope now. For more details, see http://www.lemburg.com/files/python/mxDateTime.html. You can find the first version of the new DateTime module here: http://www.zope.org/Members/srichter/Products/DateTimeNG Currently, it has a problem with ZCatalog. If you create a catalog and then restart Zope, you get a nasty setstate error: 2001-06-07T04:54:40 ERROR(200) ZODB Couldn't load state for '\000\000\000\000\000\000 \015' Traceback (innermost last): File /opt/devel/dev11480/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 533, in setstate SystemError: Failed to import class localtime from module __main__ (This is abbreviated debug output from the console.) Since I would like to see this new module in the Zope core ASAP (best in Zope 2.4), I wanted to ask you guys, whether you could have a look at this problem, since I do not know much about the Catalog and the entire ZODB pickle/unpickle process. Furthermore, I would love to hear your comments and ideas. With mxDateTime we can do much more now and have many more possibilities. The current version of the new DateTime module handles most of the old API functions correctly. Only some timezone issues are left open, but using the existing time zone mappers this should be no problem.
