[Nix-dev] changing the default source epoch to be zip-safe

hi,

on nix it is a regular problem for me that zip file generating tools fail
due to the epoch time being set to a time that's not supported in the 
zip format
(mostly python wheels)

i would like to propose setting that epoch by default to something that 
is supported by zip
