I bet a few people are gonna be hopping mad about this ;-)
I couldn't help but ask myself, what was he thinking? It's not like he doesn't know about datetime - he's on the datetime mailing list... (see this message).
Give a hoot, don't pollute!

Actually, he didn't know about the DT project.
I emailed him after he uploaded Date, Time and DateTime, informing him of the project and recommending he schedule his modules for deletion.
That message you reference is after that. =)

Absolutely! Everyone needs to read more! Perhaps such things need to be highlighted further? Mind you, I barely remember the PAUSE web interface for uploads; I've been using the cpan-upload script for quite some time =)
I pointed out perlnewmod and such to him as well =)
Oh, this has been on CPAN for ages. You can tell, because it uses Perl 4 style function calls all over the place.
&date_get();
