   Hi,

   Thank you for what looks like a very useful library! I am just starting to work with it.

   I had to change strptime() in deliciousapi.py v.1.5.3 to get the example code above to work on my machine. I’m not sure if this is because of different versions of libs or what, but here’s the patch to make it work for me:

   Thanks for your feedback!

   Are you using Python 2.4 by any chance? IIRC, the strptime() function in datetime.datetime module was introduced in Python 2.5 (see Python 2.5: 5.1.4 datetime Objects) whereas the function of the same name in time module (see Python 2.4: 6.11 time — Time access and conversions) has been around for longer.
