Description
I can load mx.DateTime stuff into meta.DateTimeField based fields in my database items, but when I read them out again they have magically turned into datetime.datetimes.

See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Django uses explicitely the builtin datetime library to reduce dependency on external projects. If there is a builtin library to Python that solves a problem, Django usually uses that instead of some external lib. And the mx libs have the additional problem of needing a C compiler to build, too.
