In my understanding there are several time zone issues that are getting muddled into the same conversation. What do we mean when finishing time zone stuff? When I question the priority of this I am speaking ONLY of the work that deals with the time zone widget (not all the other bugs/work items). This means moving from the 2 widgets we use today regardless of whether we end of with the same list as the desktop vs some other better alternative. This is addressed by the specific bug Priscilla is talking about here #8398.

The other time zone work ie: prompting users when they subscribe to a calendar with TZ info is very important for Preview and might be considered a blocker for day to day usage. I don't have a list of all the other time zone bugs but I expect we will simply just prioritize them on a case by case basis as P1, P2, P3. There may be a couple of TZ bugs that are must have for Preview but we don't fix all the problems that bundle into "finishing time zone".

Does this sound reasonable?

Just a question. What's the relative priority of this?
Finishing up the time zone feature is a pretty high priority feature which to be completed for 0.7. It is probably more important then the dashboard. In addition we've already received d/ f feedback about how confusing time zone is currently because in 0.6, time zone was only half completed.


I think that we are working under different ideas about the priority of timezone. If timezone stuff is more important than the dashboard, then we should be pulling Bobby off of dashboard work (thereby blocking Travis and Matthew) in order to do the timezone stuff first. It has never been my understanding that finishing timezone is more important than the dashboard.
