Hello perlmonk.

I tried to use DateTime::Format::Manip. But it fails on 01conversions.t test script. Google showed me there are men who met the same situation but I couldn't get clue to solve this. It fails on first test and below is the output. 

not ok 1 - Parse Date 'March 23, 2003'
#   Failed test 'Parse Date 'March 23, 2003''
#   at 01conversions.t line 73.
#          got: '2003-03-22T09:00:00.000000000 EST
# '
#     expected: '2003-03-23T00:00:00.000000000 EST
# '

When it tries to parse date string 'March 23, 2003', parse_datetime subroutine seems to try to ajust hour from 0 to 9. May be this is because initial TimeZone and EST differs at set_time_zone subroutine at DateTime.pm, but I couldn't dig it deeper.

I wonder someone at this monastery has some clue to this problem.

I installed it from cpanplus, version of module is "DateTime-Format-DateManip-0.04". perl 5.12.2, FreeBSD 8.2

Regards.
