Re: [docs] TZ offset description is unclear in docs (issue 8810)
Reviewers: Nick Coghlan, http://bugs.python.org/review/8810/diff/5785/Doc/library/datetime.rst File Doc/library/datetime.rst (right): http://bugs.python.org/review/8810/diff/5785/Doc/library/datetime.rst#newcod... Doc/library/datetime.rst:1011: west from UTC. The sentence above still uses slightly incorrect terminology. UTC is timescale and not a geographical location. There is no such point or a line on our planet called UTC, so it is not correct to speak about things east or west of UTC. If you read UTC here as the Greenwich meridian, then the sentence is incorrect because there are places west of Greenwich that use negative offsets. http://bugs.python.org/review/8810/diff/5785/Doc/library/datetime.rst#newcod... Doc/library/datetime.rst:1027: west from UTC. See above. http://bugs.python.org/review/8810/diff/5785/Doc/library/datetime.rst#newcod... Doc/library/datetime.rst:1049: Note that the name is 100% informational – there's no requirement that it 100% is redundant here. I would just say "is informational." http://bugs.python.org/review/8810/diff/5785/Doc/library/datetime.rst#newcod... Doc/library/datetime.rst:1050: mean anything in particular. For example, ``"GMT"``, ``"UTC"``, ``"-500"``, Grammar? "it mean" -> "it means" or "for it to mean" http://bugs.python.org/review/8810/diff/5785/Doc/library/datetime.rst#newcod... Doc/library/datetime.rst:1931: Spurious empty line? Please review this at http://bugs.python.org/review/8810/ Affected files: Doc/library/datetime.rst Lib/datetime.py Modules/_datetimemodule.c
