Hey Sven! It started out as a question about the offset of the epoch. >From the responses, and some of my own problems in the past, it seems clear that having an epoch without a specific timezone does not work (see my example earlier in the thread of converting to seconds, moving to a different timezone, and converting back to a DateAndTime). As David Lewis mentioned, we're back in the world of DOS (which is how I got into this mess to begin with - fixing ZipArchive led me to DOS times, led me to SqueakEpoch...). The only way out that I can see is to assume that all times-as-seconds are in a reference timezone, and the Unix epoch already exists, is widely known, and specifies UTC, so I used that, as David suggested.
