	[INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE] - Datetime object support now via
	->epoch method instead of ->strftime.

	  Despite the fact that this is an incompatible change, it
	  should actually be a nonevent for almost all users, because
	  every datetime module I could find that supports ->strftime
	  also supports ->epoch (and vice versa).

	  However, the ->strftime methods of many modules are (subtly
	  or badly) broken in the face of timezones even as their
	  ->epoch methods work right (or else are broken subtly
	  enough to escape notice).

	  But if you have written your own datetime class, and it
	  has a ->strftime method but not an ->epoch method, and
	  you pass instance of that class to instance of this module,
	  then the feeds you generate that way will now be broken.

	  On balance, I believe that this change will unbreak vastly
	  more code than it breaks. Therefore I decided to switch.
