- issue2551223 - fix timestamp truncation in mysql and postgresql The data types used to represent timestamps in pg and mysql for ephemeral tables: sessions and otks don't have enough signifcant digits to work. As a result the timestamps are rounduped (up/down) rsuling in the stored timestamp being 2 minutes (pg) or 2-3 hours(mysql) off from what it should be. Modify db schema to use a numeric type that preserves more significant figures. Implement schema upgrade. Document need for upgrade in upgrading.txt. Write tests for schema upgrade. Implement test for updateTimestamp method on BasicDatabase that showed this issue in the first place. Write overrides for test for anydbm/memorydb which store timestamp properly or not at all.

def eml_to_mht(db, cl, nodeid, newvalues):
    '''This auditor fires whenever a new file entity is created.

    If the file is of type message/rfc822, we tack onthe extension .eml.

    The reason for this is that Microsoft Internet Explorer will not open
    things with a .eml attachment, as they deem it 'unsafe'. Worse yet,
    they'll just give you an incomprehensible error message. For more 
    information, please see:

    Their suggested work around is (excerpt):

     WORKAROUND

     To work around this behavior, rename the .EML file that the URL
     links to so that it has a .MHT file name extension, and then update
     the URL to reflect the change to the file name. To do this:

     1. In Windows Explorer, locate and then select the .EML file that
        the URL links.
     2. Right-click the .EML file, and then click Rename.
     3. Change the file name so that the .EML file uses a .MHT file name
        extension, and then press ENTER.
     4. Updated the URL that links to the file to reflect the new file
        name extension.

    So... we do that. :)'''
