It's an awesome thing, actually.
Before Tycho 0.13, people trying to build our projects locally in
California or Europe would get different results because they were not
in the same time zone as our Jenkins server cluster (in Boston). Made
for some confusing/annoying debugging because you'd THINK the local bits
you just built would trump previously-built ones on the server, but due
to timezone offsets, you'd be wrong.
Since Tycho 0.13 switched to use UTC, that problem is no more.

Tycho uses UTC timezone to calculate build qualifier [1]. This is a good

Hi,
Does anyone know why the buildQualifier value is about 5 hours ahead
of the actual build time? For example, the last cdt-nightly build run
on Nov 9 at 6:01am, however the buildQualifier is 20091106. Is
the hudson master in some far off time zone somewhere? Or in a time
warp?
