It should display in the person's local time, not the loco local time which as has been pointed out does not really exist. for example, https://launchpad.net/~dholbach is in Europe/Berlin https://launchpad.net/~czajkowski is in Europe/Dublin if both are logged in to the loco directory it could show it each individual local time if you are not logged in then show in UTC as it says on the +editlocation page "Once the time zone is correctly set, events in Launchpad will be displayed in local time." so the timezone attribute of the launchpad person is specifically there for localising time display.
-- event details includes unneeded full date and timezone https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/600161 You received this bug notification because you are a member of loco- directory-dev, which is the registrant for loco-directory. Status in LoCo Directory: Triaged Bug description: The details for an event (e.g. http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/163/detail/) has 2 fields, the "Date begin:" and "Date end:". Both list the full date, time and timezone that the event is happening. This it too much information for a standard user. For events that only span one day (which will be quite common I guess), you should only show the date once. e.g. a sample output would be "6:00 → 10:00, Wed, 30 Jul 2010". You don't need to show the timezone for the event. Timezones get confusing for people. For example, it's common for people to think that the UK and Ireland are on GMT all year round. Most people in a LoCo are local, so the timezones are unneeded, since most of the people attending will be in the same timezone _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~loco-directory-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~loco-directory-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
