It also incorrectly identifies Denmark as UTC+1h when I know (as Poul-Henning pointed out many times before, and I read the law he pointed me to) it is GMT+1h. I have considered traveling to Gudhjem which is the Danish village which is closest to the 15-degree line. When I am at my summerhouse, I am far closer to Gudhjem then Poul-Henning is when he is at home. Last time I checked, Gudhjem is the home of 777 soles. It should be noted that there is many ways to write GMT, you can write it as GMT, Greenwhich Mean Time, Mean solar time at the Greenwich meridian (usually with ix15 degrees offsets) or just Mean solar time at ix15 meridian. It is a bit humours that the Danish translation of the EC Directive on summer-time shifts defines the shifts between summer and winter time as occuring at certain UTC times where as only GMT based times is legally acknowledged in Denmark. Lovely. :) I guess I am a nut-case to find humour in such things. I am still wondering who would set up NTP servers that provides UT1 time in order to realize GMT over NTP. It would not be all that difficult as UTC-UT1R is published regularly with advance estimates which could be smoothed out and interpolated properly.
