[Zope] Re: Datebug?

[Peter Arvidsson]

I already used the things in AlexR's howto but still he uses fmt or strftime() and that is
the problem. AlexR claims the base is GMT though (the Zope developers said the base-time was
UTC). Nevertheless this is a problem... I'll try to chunk it in the collector once more with
a bit more explaination.

Thanks for your help.
