Worrying about the ruling timezone does not really impact the smaller implementations on a localized level in the short term, but looking down the proverbial road (2-5 years) we will definitely feel the pain. Many of us will be wanting to roll out business environments and applications to global audiences that are used to dealing with UTC. People hosting global conferences and events all use current applications that rely on UTC to some degree or other. Many people will be coming to the OpenSim metaverse first through these events without ever having been to or through SL. We actually bumped into this issue when using SL but had to work around it since we had no other choice. I for one am happy we now have the choice to go beyond Linden Labs framework and begin standardizing in a truly open environment.
