CHANGES

6.0 (2025-09-12)

• Replace pkg_resources namespace with PEP 420 native namespace.

5.1 (2025-02-14)

• Add support for Python 3.12, 3.13.

• Drop support for Python 3.7, 3.8.

5.0.0 (2023-04-25)

• Drop support for Python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6.

• Add support for Python 3.10, 3.11.

4.3.0 (2021-02-26)

• Drop support for Python 3.4.

• Add support for Python 3.7, 3.8 and 3.9.

• Prevent a DeprecationWarning in Python 3.8+ when using a parameter for iso8601_date, rfc850_date, or rfc1123_date which has to be converted via its __int__ method.

4.2.0 (2017-08-14)

• Remove support for guessing the timezone name when a timestamp exceeds the value supported by Python’s localtime function. On platforms with a 32-bit time_t, this would involve parsed values that do not specify a timezone and are past the year 2038. Now the underlying exception will be propagated. Previously an undocumented heuristic was used. This is not expected to be a common issue; Windows, as one example, always uses a 64-bit time_t, even on 32-bit platforms. See https://github.com/zopefoundation/zope.datetime/issues/4

• Use true division on Python 2 to match Python 3, in case certain parameters turn out to be integers instead of floating point values. This is not expected to be user-visible, but it can arise in artificial tests of internal functions.

• Add support for Python 3.5 and 3.6.

• Drop support for Python 2.6, 3.2 and 3.3.

4.1.0 (2014-12-26)

• Add support for PyPy and PyPy3.

• Add support for Python 3.4.

• Add support for testing on Travis.

4.0.0 (2013-02-19)

• Add support for Python 3.2 and 3.3.

• Drop support for Python 2.4 and 2.5.

3.4.1 (2011-11-29)

• Add test cases from LP #139360 (all passed without modification to the parse function).

• Remove unneeded zope.testing dependency.

3.4.0 (2007-07-20)

• Initial release as a separate project.
