From 6d7b65a912e6ea7e36d3ea5121bea2f427de453f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russ Allbery Date: Tue, 15 Jul 2014 16:50:13 -0700 Subject: Use DateTime objects in the database layer, not strings Pass in DateTime objects for the date fields in the database instead of formatted time strings. This provides better compatibility with different database engines. Document in README the need to install the DateTime::Format::* module corresponding to the DBD::* module used for the server database.
