[Python-ideas] [Python-Dev] Issue5434: datetime.monthdelta

[Tennessee Leeuwenburg]

My thoughts on balance regarding monthdeltas:
  -- Month operations are useful, people will want to do them
  -- I think having a monthdelta object rather than a method makes sense to
me
  -- I think the documentation is severely underdone. The functionality is
not intuitive
     and therefore the docs need a lot more detail than usual
  -- Can you specify "1 month plus 10 days"?, i.e. add a monthdelta to a
timedelta?
  -- What about other cyclical periods (fortnights, 28 days, lunar cycles,
high tides)?

Cheers,
-T
