One thing we could do is to allow the xsd:dateTime desrialization to be in absolut (GMT/UTC) time. Since the current local time deserialization is still necessary, this would need to be configurable - one more item to axsicpp.conf for example.
This would be not just for the unit tests but we have a customer who wants to have GMT/UTC times and has to jump through hoops right now with the fixed local time conversion of xsd:dateTime. I think this would be quite useful to add.

Hmm ... yeah, I've been wondering about this, either we need to "smart" up the framework to cope with this, or perhaps our general approach to date/time isn't quite right? Adrian
