Hello.

I am looking for a module to use for date and time string
manipulations. I want something that can recognize most of the various
date/time strings in common useage, perform calculations, and so on.

I have checked the FAQ but I see no recommendations there.
CPAN offers quite a few, but I don't know which is most commonly
used and recommended.

Suggestions?
