Dear Sir,

I am writing to apologise for my poor advice.

Now that I have checked more extensively, the recommendation to 
intrepret _part of the data_ returned from the RRD with RRDs::fetch (if 
(undef, undef, undef, $d) = RRDs::fetch(..); use $d->[0] as a 
time_t) was complete and utter nonsense.

(For the benefit of the archives, RRDs::fetch returns ($start, $step, 
$ds_ar, $data_ar) where $ds_ar is a ref to an array of 'Data Set names', 
and $data_ar is a ref to an array of refs, where the first array 
contains the values found in the interval [so $data_ar->[0] is the first 
set of measurements, $data_ar->[1] is the second set] and the 
measurements themselves are $data_ar->[1][1] for the first DS value, 
data_ar->[1][2] for the second DS value ..).

I beg your pardon.

Yours sincerely.
