Subject: | Option to prefer future |
Hi Tom,
We're currently happily using DateTime-Format-Natural. It seems to
handle most of the dates our users throw at it. As a fallback we offer
Date-Manip. I'd prefer to offer your module as a fallback.
One issue is that DateTime-Format-Flexible does not have optional
prefer-future semantics. This is important - especially for our
hiveminder.com application - since todo lists are almost always about
the future, not the past.
For example, "Wednesday" has a different meaning depending on where in
the week you are. We always want it to mean the next Wednesday, not the
nearest one.
Thanks!
Shawn
