thanks @mimistiv ! 🙏

i'll take a closer look later, but I think that year might need defining in some other places - i'd suggest checking how/where month is defined and taking inspiration from there

or just splitting year off from this PR and doing it separately, so we can merge month here quickly

thanks @MarcoGorelli ! I think the issue is related to https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/blob/main/pandas/_libs/tslibs/timestamps.pxd#L24, where nanosecond and year are already declared

hey @MarcoGorelli! Do you have any advice on how I could best handle this issue? I was thinking I could change the declarations in the pxd file to use _year and _nanosecond similarly to _value but that will mean I need to change it everywhere and I need to be sure what all the uses are. In the meantime I might create a separate PR to handle the value changes and the month small fix.

hey - sure, let's start with a separate pr which we can merge quickly, and then we'll iterate over the trickier one?

Hey @MarcoGorelli , I split up the PR and the value/month part of it has now been merged! :) Could you please take a look at the suggested solution I have for year and nanosecond here?

[mimistiv]

Hey @MarcoGorelli @mroeschke, could I ask one of you to please take a look at the proposed solution in this PR when you have the time? Thanks in advance!

[MarcoGorelli]

hey - sure, sorry for the delay, i still need to undertsand why year needed to be marked as cdef readonly in the first place, it's already a property of the python standard library's datetime.datetime...will get back to you on this

my bad unfortunately, just had a work trip + holiday, and very little / no funded time at the moment - i'll get back to this, i'll remove the 'stale' label

Thanks @MarcoGorelli ! I can see that merging with main resulted in a failed unit test which seems unrelated to my PR. Is this a known issue?

[MarcoGorelli]

agree that it's unrelated, but recent commits look green 🥦 so it may have just fixed itself - let's ship this then, thanks for your contribution!
