PalmDB requests and bug report

I'm having a problem with the crackPalmDate function

(I'm using svn code)

PILOT_TIME_DELTA = 2082844800L
def crackPalmDate(variable):
        if variable == 0:
            return None
        else:
            return datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(variable-PILOT_TIME_DELTA)

I often get a ValueError because variable-PILOT_TIME_DELTA is sometimes a
negative number. I've changed the code to be...

PILOT_TIME_DELTA = 2082844800L
def crackPalmDate(variable):
        if variable == 0 or variable < PILOT_TIME_DELTA:
            return None
        else:
            return datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp
(variable-PILOT_TIME_DELTA)

Is this a problem?


Additionally, I'd like to create a "plugin" for the todo database, but I'm
not sure how to go about doing it. The Base Plugin class is working
perfectly but the payload needs to be decrypted properly. How can I create a
plugin that only overloads the payload functions and have it loaded when
necessary?
