/home/kozerus/public_html/pn/uize/site-source/js/Uize

This is a TO DO document for the =Uize.Date= module.

- possibly turn package into an Object
	- stitch in instance methods from Date object, as is done with the Uize.String.Builder object
	- make majority of static methods available as instance methods

Uize.Date.resolve
	- consider expanding dateSTRorOBJ value type to dateSTRorINTorOBJ, in order to support dates specified as POSIX milliseconds

- refactor tomkidding.com to no longer use Tk.Date
- localization

- possible new methods...
	- Uize.Date.is - determines if specified value is a valid date (could be used by Uize.Widget.TableSort in checking for valid date columns)

Uize.Date.getRange
	- support more range types
		- range, neatly bound
			- start to end
				eg. this week, this month, this year, etc.
			- start to date
				eg. from start of this month till date
			- date to end
				eg. from date till end of month
			- end and beyond
				eg. starting next month
			- up until start
				eg. before this month
			- past
				- before date
			- future
				- after date
		- range, with date alignment
			- 0: starting at
			- .5: range with date in middle
			- 1: ending at

Uize.Date.isRecent
	- ability to specify time unit for recency window (default to days)
	- right now, always checks if specified date is recent, relative to now - could also allow reference point date to be specified
	- right now, you can check if date is within a time window before or after now -- what about date being "around" now (i.e. in a window some time leading up to and some time past now)

Uize.Date.constrain
	- constrain a date to a specified Date range

Uize.Date.inRange
	- could be refactored to make use of new =Uize.Date.constrain= method
		return +(_date = _resolve (_date)) == +_package.constrain (_date,_range)
	- benefit would be smaller implementation, and Uize.Date.constrain would support ranges where minValue is after maxValue, because it would use Uize.constrain in its implementation
