toma has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I've been writing code lately that uses dates in the form of seconds since the epoch. This code will all break in 2038, I believe. I don't think there's much chance that the code or I will survive until then, but on the off chance that we do, I would like to leave some comments for the maintainer.

Is there a standard way to mark this type of code, or is there a simple way to design code to make this easy to fix?

It should work perfectly the first time! - toma
