 # Changelog
+- v0.7613 - Improved timestamps on multiple timezones
+  - Added a separate module to `src/timedate_handler.py` to assist the model
+  - => Datetime stamps now in separate system messages
+  - => More TZ-aware dates and times
 - v0.7611 - Parsing hotfix for notifications
 - v0.761 - **Timed notifications / user reminders**
   - Brand-new feature: users can set timed reminders (alerts) by requesting reminders that the bot stores in an SQLite database. A separate poller picks them up as soon as they are due, and the bot automatically notifies the user on set times.
