Its that damm timezone problem in zope. If the python string returned as your timezone is not known to zope it barfs. This problem has been going on for months and I feel because it is something that only effects non-american zope users there has not been enough effort into fixing it. In fact I have fixed this bug and submitted it and am disappointed that it has not made into the source yet as was promised. This is a show stopping bug. In certain countries any application that uses dates from sql where a timezone is not supplied is going to crash!!!
Please stop being so US centric and fix this bug!!!
Jay, Did you submit this patch to the Collector, or just to the list? I don't see it in the Collector anywhere, but if you'll copy it to me via email I can put it in there to make sure it gets attention. Thanks!
