What is simple for you may be complex for others. I think that is the essence of this forum, to share your wealth of knowledge and experience with the less priviledge. kamal. At 08:34 PM 3/18/2005 +0100, Dieter Maurer wrote:

The easiest way would be to use a different (and unique) notation for your timezone, e.g. "GMT+8".
Well, it turns out not to be so easy. I found that even a notation like "GMT+8" is not unique in meaning, see http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/806-5189/6je7g4sr7?a=view. It can mean 8 hours east of GMT, or 8 hours west of GMT!!! And again zope DateTime seems to interprete this differently than the Linux operation system.
Apparently, it is very simple to make simple things extremely complex...
I noted a second option in my previous message -- this you see it?
