G'day Greg,
The best place to discuss any DateTime module is on the DateTime list. 
 From there you'd have seen I was active (and you'd have been able to 
get my personal email address).

I'll take a look at the issues on RT and get a release ready in the next 
day or so. Sorry I missed the issues .. I'm not a big fan of RT and 
you'll see the documentation says:

* Bugtracker
For bug tracking and reporting, please use the google-code tracker 
rather than the RT interface linked at search.cpan.org
http://code.google.com/p/datetime-format-strptime/issues/list

.. as does the interface at search.cpan.org and the metadata in the 
distribution. I'm not sure why people use RT when nothing points to it.

[Though to be fair I haven't seen notifications from there either and 
there are four issues listed.]

Once again, thanks for the heads-up. I'll get a release out ASAP.

(Whoever runs search.cpan .. is there any way you

Cheers!
