Or is it P30D even though I'm currently in August? What about PT24H30M and P1D? Under certain circumstances a Day can have more or less that 24 hours (DST-transition) Even though those might be edge-cases exactly those edge-cases need to be handled or they will show up here in the bug-tracker. So I'd really like to get some feedback on how you think those edge-cases should be handled. Otehrwise there are some userland libraries that handle most aspects of Interval-COmparison but not those edge-cases… (f.e but not limited to https://packagist.org/packages/org_heigl/dateintervalcomparator) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-12-03 14:28:09] will dot tinsdeall at mercianlabels dot com Any closer to applying a fix on this?
