I think Tim and Guido had deliberately avoided local timezone awareness when they designed the module.
Also, I question whether the proposed API is correct. ISTM that any code that sets the *dst* parameter is guaranteed to be wrong (hardwiring-in a value that will change every few months).
Have you studied the solutions used in other libraries and other languages? This path has been well-traveled, so original work may be less helpful than just researching existing solutions. |
