Please vote on std.datetime

[Andrej Mitrovic]

I don't usually see a library with that many unittests. It looks
pretty big, and if all these unittests pass that's great!

I like this little convenient function:
assert(DateTime.fromSimpleString("1998-Dec-25 02:15:00") ==
DateTime(Date(1998, 12, 25), TimeOfDay(2, 15, 0)));

If my vote counts, I vote yes.
