[Zope] DST Zone Date, help needed!

[julio dinis]

Hello all,

I'm having a hard time with dates since portugal entered DST last March 26.

If I use:

<dtml-var "REQUEST.set('mydate','2000/03/31 15:00:00.000 GMT')">
manage_changeProperties(REQUEST)

I can get from "mydate" the utc hour (14:00) with the
fmt="a-la-C %H:%M" and the current GMT DST of Portugal(15:00) with
Zope's TimeMinutes().

If I use:

<form action="manage_changeProperties">
<input type="text:date" value="2000/03/31 15:00:00.000 GMT" name=mydate>
<input type=submit>
</form>

the fmt format and zope's zopetime() give me the same hour that
is the GMT-DST (15:00), i.e, somehow the "text:date" conversion is
ignoring the Portuguese GMT-DST and assume, in this example, 15:00 as
the UTC.

Since nobody is answering I'm going into the source to find where is this 
conversion. I'll get back with a solution... I hope :-)

Thanx,
Julio
