Unfortunately, the sudden burst of activity on #93810 caught me by surprise, and it took me a while to see it.
Let me assure you, as an Australian who has lived in Australia his whole life, that AEST is more common than EST. I very rarely see EST - it's either AEST or AEDT. Also, I agree with Mike's comments - just because there's some ambiguity there already, doesn't mean there should be more. "It's what we do now" isn't a convincing case for retaining it. IMO the change to AEST can do nothing but *alleviate* confusion. Keeping its abbreviation shared with one of the most often-used timezones in the world is a bad idea, and it should be changed AEST sooner rather than later. But that's just my opinion. :) -- Daniel Stone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> KDE: Konquering a desktop near you - http://www.kde.org
