This is a request to have parsedatetime handle date ranges such as:

August 1-15, 2006
Oct-Nov, 2006
in 2-3 weeks

This is would be useful in the context of parsing announcements for events,
conferences, etc. 

The simplest would be to return a tuple of dates delimiting the start and
end of the range.

Hi,

Thanks for the request!

Darshana has implemented something like this (the parsing of "-" for date ranges) so
I'll have to look to see if the current code handles your examples.
