Progress Pond

Hey andy, about the clock…

I’m afraid there doesn’t seem to be any way I can e-mail andy about a technical matter, so this diary will have to do.  (I didn’t want to e-mail Booman right now on something relatively minor.)

Much of eastern Australia has just gone onto summer (or daylight) time (UTC +11).  So I reset my user preferences for Eastern Aust Daylight time.  Trouble is, this results in the display being an hour behind what it should be.  If I switch it back to Eastern Aust Standard it shows two hours behind.

As I recall, the time is calculated by or from the BT server settings.  I know daylight time has just ended on the US West Coast.  Andy, can you check the server clock and the time zone selected for the server in scoop?  I suspect the problem may be one of those.  This would be confirmed if other people are getting strange readings…
