Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/9] Export parse_date_basic() to convert a date string to  timestamp
Date: Thu, 24 Jun 2010 20:32:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTikkR3KaMPcltwJslAxna25bmFixIKLsGzf55_ZW@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi Jonathan,

This specific patch is clear. I have some issues with some of the
other parts in the series.

Right. I couldn't justify exposing it in the series that's in master now.

Since I'm to blame for this change,
