Description
With pytz and datetime being included in the python2.4 distribution most people
don't expect to have any trouble with using them. While they seem easy on the
surface both of these libraries have a few gotchas that are very easy to
encounter unless you really know them both. Working on a calendaring heavy web
applications (SchoolTool/SchoolBell) I have encountered a lot of datetime
related bugs myself. So I will try to demonstrate common mistakes made by
developers and explain the right way of performing operations that are otherwise
difficult to get right.
