     79==== Development questions ====
     80In db table 'ticket_custom' a new row is created for every (custom time) field. Would it be worth the effort to delete this row, if the date/time is effectively purged? For now we end up with just an empty string {{{''}}}.
     81
    7982==== ''No'' additional code dependency, but an option ====
    8083Amongst the few new dependencies use of ''eGenix.com'' time string parser ''mxDateTime.Parser'' for Python is the most notable one ![2]. We need to add such a powerful tool to provide a mature parser right from the start. If handled with care, similar but incompatible classes ''datetime.datetime'' and ''mxDateTime.!DateTime'' are not much of an issue. In fact it doesn't matter at all, as long as we stick to unix time stamp format for saving times in the db for other (good) reasons as well.
