Re: [Perl-workflow-devel] Date formats in Workflow/Persister/DBI.pm

[Jonas B. N. <jo...@gm...>]

Hello Jim and welcome,

Your suggestion for putting the format in the persister config is  
good, since I am sure that the different DB backends use differing  
formats and we also have to adapt/support non-db persisters.

So does anybody else have a take on this, else I will set up a task  
for this and put it in the roadmap.
