texte = --001517475ee2a2b50504a5a79692Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8Hi all,Following up on some of the discussion re: UNIX timestamps recently I waswondering if anyone is using this format as the default for storing datesand times. I use a mixture of [math]{[date]}[/math] and seconds_since(i.e. total number of seconds since the WebDNA epoch date). But I wasthinking that the UNIX version might allow for better interoperability withother systems.Are there any pitfalls with this setup? Do people use other conventionsfor storing dates/times?Thanks- Tom--001517475ee2a2b50504a5a79692Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printableHi all,
Following up on some of the discussion re: UNIX =timestamps recently I was wondering if anyone is using this format as the d=efault for storing dates and times. =C2=A0 =C2=A0I use a mixture of [math]{=[date]}[/math] and seconds_since (i.e. total number of seconds since the We=bDNA epoch date). =C2=A0 But I was thinking that the UNIX version might all=ow for better interoperability with other systems.
Are there any pitfalls with this setup? =C2=A0 Do= people use other conventions for storing dates/times?
