We specifically added that feature to support production calendaring applications; I worked on it with Karel. When someone calendars a event to be "3 days later" they don't expect it to jump by an hour because it crossed a DST boundary. So changing it would break a bunch of people's apps, especially mine. -- Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Experts Inc. http://pgexperts.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
