Greetings!

PyDERASN has never been aware of timezones in datetimes. It is just
blind to them when encoding. However that is not explicitly mentioned in
documentation and I will fix it.
>ut == nut
Indeed one of them contains original datetime object (with tzinfo set)
and other is decoded one, without any timezone information. I think that
the best thing to do is to explicitly .replace(tzinfo=None) for
initialized datetimes in *Time objects. I will fix it (with
documentation above) in the next release. Or maybe raise an error if
someone uses timezone-away datetime objects, forcing him to make them
neutral? What do you think?
Anyway, if you want to use tzinfo-set objects, then you have to write
your own wrappers. At least DER encoding works only with UTC time.
