Hi David. pytz is a standard python package included in zope that can 
help you manage time zone issues. There are methods to represent time 
that is properly offset according to a large database of global 
timezones. This will help you present the view of time you wish to your 
application's users. Refer to the documentation in the package to give 
you an idea of what is possible.


Regards,
David

For example consider a content object that represents a store, and
includes the store hours.  A store owner may enter their opening ours as
0800 in their timezone.  Do you store this as 0800? How does locale fit
in both in terms of store owners and store customers (who may be in
different time zones)?

[Zope3-Users] Time Zones/Internationalization

2006-06-05 Thread David Johnson
How do you deal with time zones in your applications, in regards to
dates and times entered by users of the application. 

For example consider a content object that represents a store, and
includes the store hours.  A store owner may enter their opening ours as
0800 in their timezone.  Do you store this as 0800? How does locale fit
in both in terms of store owners and store customers (who may be in
different time zones)?
