Python 2.5 Date/Time Module Poorly Designed?
I'm not sure If I'm the only one who feel that the date/time module in python 2.5 is very hard to use. If any of you ever tried using joda time, you'll notice that it's way to easy compared to python's date/time library.
Correct me If i'm wrong but joda time was created by Google guys so I hope that in the near future, python will have a better date/time library (since Google is the main supporter of python).

hello tim! tried the dateutil you gave me and it solved my problem. i think joda time (of java) is still very much superior to this though.

Have you looked at dateutil? http://labix.org/python-dateutil I haven't used joda or anything java, so I'm not sure if dateutil comes close to what you want.
