hey all,

haven't been too active in the group yet, but I'll try to make the
next meeting. It's been tough getting there on time. certainly some
good info flying around the list.

I've implemented tzinfo_timezone plugin in a project of mine and
everything is working just fine as far as time zone conversions go,
but I was wondering if anyone who has used it knows of a way to reduce
the size of the drop-down menu created from plugin. Currently I am
doing:

<%= time_zone_select 'user', 'time_zone',
TZInfo::Timezone.all.sort, :model => TZInfo::Timezone, :include_blank
=> true %>

This results in a drop-down menu several hundred items long which
seems like overkill to me. I could reduce it down to just listing the
GMT offsets, but seriously how many people know their GMT offset? I
know I don't without looking it up. It's an international site so I
can't just limit it to US time zones.

Any ideas on how to make this thing a little more user friendly?

Thanks in advance,
Jon Buda
