It seems this committee of two has come to a consensus on naive -- and you're probably right, raise an exception if there is a time zone specifier.
Count me as +1 on naive, but consider converting garbage (including strings with trailing Z) to NaT.
That's not how we handle other types, e.g.: In [5]: a = np.zeros(1, dtype=float) In [6]: a[0] = "garbage" ValueError: could not convert string to float: garbage (Cf, "Errors should never pass silently".) Any reason why datetime64 should be different? -n -- Nathaniel J. Smith Postdoctoral researcher - Informatics - University of Edinburgh http://vorpus.org
