Good to see progress.
Re timestamps: I’m not quite sure what you are running into.
The builds were taking a time that included a timezone. Here's some output
from recent builds:
[java] -metadata.date=02/25/20 14:51 +0000
[java] -metadata.dateFormat=MM/dd/yy HH:mm Z
So I'm not sure how the timezone got lost on what you are seeing. The RM was
supposed to type in something like "02/25/20 14:51 +0000". The prompts on the
Jenkins job were supposed to hint that.
HTH,
