May be its just me, but there are things I would rather see OpenSRS spending their programmers time on than saving me from subtracting 8 (7 in the summer).

Swerve,

Thanks - glad to see someone saw the same analogy and a bit of irony
regarding this issue. Everyone else seemed to think they had to respond with
the proper definition of a time zone...

Why not stick the outage into your database in UTC time, then rip your
OpenSRS Live Reseller Updates out accordingly, with each reseller getting
the outage in his own time zone...


I am not a programmer.  Oops.  But your idea has sparked this idea, but not
sure if it's scriptable. Resellers could tick off their time zone some where
in their reseller account.  (i use the gui interface.)  Then when opensrs
sends out emails, it states the UTC time and adds the Resellers local time
in the body of the email.  Problem with me and UTC, is i can never remember
the time difference betw. that and Toronto, Canada time.


As someone mentioned, "It's not rocket science." I am the world's worst Perl
programmer - OK, maybe there are a few worse - but even I know how to
convert time zones...

Sorry I brought it up.

I'm not.
g'night. or depending on what part of the world you are in,... good
morning.

Oh, that's too many, Mr. Devils Playground.

Having an asterisk beside the announced time and a list of 6-8 major cities
and their respective times at the end of the email won't break the bandwidth
and might even be an interesting aesthetic reflecting the large geographical
range of the folks here.

Kind of when you walk into a hotel that has 6 different clocks reflecting a
wide range of their customers.
