[Zope] date/time woes

[Tomasz Ciolek]

Hi all

Background: 

I am running a Linux system with Zope+Plone. My system clock is set to
UTC(GMT) and my system knows the timeone its in - Australia Eastern Time
(+1000 or +1100 for daylight saving). 

Problem:
CMFcalendar isists in makeing all dates US/Eastern, and in fact sets
many events forward or back in time. So do rest of Zope and Plone
products.

With all of this, I and my collegues are getting the jack of this 
behaviour and some dissenting voices argued for ditching zope as the 
framework in favour of somesthing "That can get the date right. Were not
Americans."

Question:
How do I get Zope and its products to take account of my TZ settings?
Is there a way to force ZOPE to live in my timezone instead opf some
place in Eastern US, which is probaly a niceplace, is NOT where I am(!).

Any advice?


Regards
Tomasz
