<br>
Paul Ganssle just asked me to close a bug which he fixed. Instead, I<br>
just gave him the bug triage permission :-)<br>
<br>
Paul is the author of dateutil:<br>
<a href="https://github.com/dateutil/dateutil" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/dateutil/dateutil</a><br>
<br>
He is fixing more and more datetime issues for longer than 1 year,<br>
including some tricky and very old issues:<br>
<a href="https://github.com/python/cpython/commits?author=pganssle" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/python/cpython/commits?author=pganssle</a><br>
<br>
For example, he implemented .fromisoformat() which was a long awaited feature:<br>
<a href="https://docs.python.org/dev/library/datetime.html#datetime.date.fromisoformat" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://docs.python.org/dev/library/datetime.html#datetime.date.fromisoformat</a><br>
<br>
Recently, he got the approval to change how datetime subclasses are<br>
handled, feature very useful for third-party libraries written on top<br>
of datetime:<br>
<a href="https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/89427cd0feae25bbc8693abdccfa6a8c81a2689c" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/89427cd0feae25bbc8693abdccfa6a8c81a2689c</a><br>
<br>
I'm happy to see him helping Alexander Belopopsky (current datetime<br>
maintainer), on maintaining datime, who is more busy these days. By<br>
the way, they met each other ;-)<br>
<br>
I sent Paul instructions how to triage bug and links into the devguide.<br>
I asked him to ask me before closing a bug.<br>
<br>
Congrats Paul ;-)<br>
