Time-Local (1.15)

Ignore reviews that claim that this module is buggy or insane. It is indispensable and has no significant known bugs. I use it frequently and without having to worry about it. It should be part of the standard repertoire of any Perl coder.

Time-Local (1.13)

It seems to me that the author of previous rating did not understand the purpose of the module (being just the inverse of perl's localtime() function) and how to use it (like localtime, timelocal uses 0..11 as month range).

Time-Local (1.13)

The package assumes that the month October is 30 days long. Moreover, it stops to execute when a non-assumed date occures.
The usage is difficult: you have to parse the date. I think, one should use David Muir Sharnoff's time packages http://search.cpan.org/dist/Time-modules/ instead.
