I ported pytz to Python 3, as I needed time zones, and dateutil broke 2to3, and I didn’t feel like debugging that issue. Porting pytz was quite quick, took only a couple of hours to sort out the problems, and as a bonus I was able to make it run under both 2.6 and 3.0 [...]

As a part of the effort of getting a good solid implementation of recurring events into Plone, we need a user interface to enter the date, time and recurring events information. Not only does the current UI of p4a.plonevent lack important recurrence features, the Plone event ui for entering the start and end times of [...]

Just before the Plone Conference, to make it easier to test, I released Plone4ArtistsCalendar 2.0a2 (including Dateable 0.4.0).

MaxM’s icalendar module is a python module that reads and writes data according to RFC2445, commonly known as iCalendar. I have been using it since the fall of 2005, and only discovered a small set of bugs in it. In fact, after the release of version 1.2 in November 2006, only two (and a half) [...]

I just released Dateable 0.3, the project that aims to be the future mega project of Plone calendaring. I also released Plone4ArtistsCalendar 2.0a1, and the reason for that is that these projects now are pretty much one and the same. Before the final release of Plone4ArtistsCalendar 2.0 it is quite likely that we’ll use only [...]

Last friday I asked you all for help with testing a thing. I got over 60 answers, thanks a lot for that! I have been able to draw a good set of conclusions. What was it all about? Well, the test was to see if it is possible to figure out what time zone you [...]

Updated: I’ve added step 3 ½ and 3 ¾.
Updated: More on MS Windows.
In my previous post on Python and time zones. I explained five problems with time zones in general and Python support for them in particular, and how I succeeded in solving four of them, and ignoring the fifth. But I also mentioned [...]
