No idea about mysql-python but I assume that is returns date fields from 
MySQL
as DateTime instance to Zope and to your application. So you should be able 
to
use the DateTime API. If 'data' in your example above should be a DateTime 
instance
that you are accessing member variable *instead* of *calling* a DateTime 
*method*.
