11.22.3 DateTime Objects 
</H2>

<P>
This class may be initialized with seconds since the epoch, a
time tuple, or an ISO 8601 time/date string.  It has the following
methods, supported mainly for internal use by the
marshalling/unmarshalling code:

<P>
<dl><dt><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr valign="baseline">
  <td><nobr><b><tt id='l2h-3703' xml:id='l2h-3703' class="method">decode</tt></b>(</nobr></td>
  <td><var>string</var>)</td></tr></table></dt>
<dd>
Accept a string as the instance's new time value.
</dl>

<P>
<dl><dt><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr valign="baseline">
  <td><nobr><b><tt id='l2h-3704' xml:id='l2h-3704' class="method">encode</tt></b>(</nobr></td>
  <td><var>out</var>)</td></tr></table></dt>
<dd>
Write the XML-RPC encoding of this DateTime item to the out stream object.
</dl>

<P>
It also supports certain of Python's built-in operators through 
<tt class="method">__cmp__</tt> and <tt class="method">__repr__</tt> methods.
