6 Date::Manip::Changes6 - backward incompatible changes in Date::Manip
7 6.xx
8
10 This describes all backwards incompatible changes made to the
11 Date::Manip module starting at version 6.00.
12
14 For the most part, Date::Manip has remained backward compatible at
15 every release, but occasionally, a change is made which is backward
16 incompatible. These are documented here. Major changes are marked with
17 asterisks.

20 %z format
21 In Date::Manip 5.xx, the %z format in UnixDate printed the offset
22 in the form -0500. In 6.00, I changed that to -05:00:00, but this
23 broke RFC 822 compliance.
24
25 I've changed %z back to -0500, and introduced a new format (%N)
26 which returns -05:00:00.
27
28 Incidentally, this is the LAST unused letter, so I am now going to
29 have to either stop adding formats, or add some extended format
30 syntax. Not sure yet which, but this may involve a backwards
31 incompatible change in the future.
