That was an oversight.  I even looked at the contents of
Bundle::Net::LDAP too. :/

I presume you're refering to the ommission of both Time-modules-* and
TimeDate-*; this I'm willing to take some heat on.

Having just gone through all the manuals I can perhaps see the point
of including one of those two modules.  However, I don't see anything
in either module that is not possible using POSIX::strftime or
Date::Manip.  I agree very strongly with Nat that the SDK needs to
provide a standard set of

  "This is your problem? This is your solution."

modules.  I just don't see an orthangonal set of problems that either
module to solves.
