Allow manipulation of time-related datatypes from PIR

[leto]

PL/Perl does not support any time-related datatype manipulation from Perl, so this would be a really cool feature that would set us apart. How do we go about doing it? I think this is a great place to use a PMC.

Is there a time object in Parrot? Or an interval?

[leto]

No. There is a time object for Rakudo, though: http://github.com/moritz/Date

Really? Kinda shocked that Parrot doesn't offer time support.

Theory: Does that mean if I start hacking on one, that you will help ? ;)

[theory]
