date

Hi, after accidentaly posting my questions about date to pear-general and not even being subscribed i missed the discussion that i started :-) well according to sterling setlocale is not thread safe which is another reason to find a different solution if we want something that works in general. It really sounds like l0t3k is working on something very interesting, but if its ze2 only it will not be a path any of us can take soon. I will look at how java handles this because I guess they probably have something fairly useable. I have a pretty good concept for i18n and l10n for my framework and only date is missing from that. The ideas that wolfram mentioned sound like a good direction. To me PEAR:Date looks a bit messy atm so I will dig through it some more. In the end I will have to see if I rather developer something for my own needs (I actually have something in my framework atm which works but is not yet what I want) or if extending/fixing PEAR:Date is worth while. I sort of fear that working on PEAR:Date will either great a very bloated class or break BC and piss of the existing users. So something new might need to be greated.
