Hello Gregor, Thanks for the reply. If I read this bug correctly, though, it means the time is off by one hour. I checked and all my date/time objects get stored as gmt+1 (which of course is indeed wrong), however, shouldn't the comparison of the two variables succeed anyway?

I guess this problem is just an incarnation of the open bug #1204 (cf. http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/1204/view), "DateTime has bad problems with daylight saving times".
A patch for is available as http://www.zope.org/Members/hathawsh/DateTime.py but it is not included in the CVS version.
Essentially, this bug says that DateTime conversions and rendering tends to be wrong, when your're in a daylight saving time zone (e.g. 'Sommerzeit').
